This breed has been changed so many times in the past people forget where and how they actually came about.
I am not a breeder. I am a Yorkie lover. I love the look, temperment, coloring,
coat and personality. I personally would not want a Yorkie under 7lbs. It seems they are being breed smaller and smaller.
To have a larger one gives me all the above and a well built dog who can
withstand being played with by my grandchildren, jumping without being afraid of injury and I feel less health issues. Perhaps they should have
2 classes of this breed. 7 and under and 8 and over. That would be
very interesting indeed. People who have the larger version wouldn't have
to hear "That Can't Be A Real Yorkie, he is definately mixed with something!
It seems that people only think a good breed Yorkie is under 7lbs.
I totally disagree.
