i thought a yorkie was a little- ear up -long coat dog
i got a 18 pound floppyeared yorkie i think its not fair but i wouldn't give him up or change him for anything (besides the barking lol)
i wish more people stuck close to the standard esp on size not all yorkies are perfect in all ways but i think its unfair that breeders don't stick to it & someone not knowing gets the complete opposite to what they wanted
i think if i didn't take brownie he would probably be in some rescue cause of his size
make sure you have homes lined up if you are set on breeding them |
but then if you saw his size yorkie walking down the road most days and thats what the norm was for what you see then when you went to the shop you would expect that size.
brandi is 15 pound at the mo but still putting on weight and when the rescue rang me they said she was standard so i thought she would be about 10 to 12 pound, i went to see her and yes i thought blimey shes bigger than i thought , so its about what YOU think is normal.
