I have to wonder what you would think if someone made a post asking "what is the fascination with larger yorkies -- why would anyone want one that big?" Wouldn't that be sort of on the mean side and maybe trying to cause some hard feeling?
I guess I just have to say that our 10 month old Yorkie "Taylor" is the love of our life. We expected him to be under 7 lbs but he is a bouncing 11 pounder. I see both sides of this but I guess that the "saying" that "Yorkie's are like a box of chocolates"....is true. Taylor's parents were much smaller....but we are happy because we take boat trips and if he was tiny it would be hard and much more dangerous for him. We love him so much and unless you have pictured only ONE expectation of what you want, and are totally set on a size, then you might be disappointed... Yorkie's are just a bundle of LOVE!
