I like both large and small yorkies but do think 50 pounds would be just too much. Part of the yorkie personality comes from their small size. My brother has one that weighs about 16 pounds and is a wonderful dog. He is very laid back and a real sweetheart. At 16 pounds he is still a relatively small dog. Mine are all much smaller and all have different personalities as well. Calm or hyper - there is a big difference in a 5 pound dog jumping up and down and running all over the place and a 50 pound dog doing the same thing. Plus the 50 pound one would eat a lot more so couldnt afford all those cute outfits! lol

Wouldnt fit in all those cute carriers I have for them either!
