I say call the breeder.....open the communication. I am not sure what you paid for your yorkie....but, I would think if your breeder has bred Yorkies for more than a year or two, she would have the experience to know what to expect out of her line. Not absolute.....but a good guess.

Now, a Yorkie being a 7 or 8 or 9 lb Yorkie is quite a bit different than an 18 lb Yorkie.

At the very least....she should give you a HUGE discount.......but, most reputable breeders would offer to replace the Yorkie that you already have. Remember, they too are breeding to meet the "standard", which is as you know.....4-7 lbs.

The decision may then be up to you........do you want your Yorkie replaced????

I say call the breeder, talk it out!

Good Luck and best wishes
