Breeder advice please for new puppy owner Hello I bought a lovely Yorkie (Silky Terrier) the kind that have the silky coat and floppy down ears. he is now 4.4lbs at 7 months. CharlieBoy. Last week I bought him a little companion. 12 week old Yorkie (so I was told). But her coat is much more coarse fur. It is short and stiffer. Her legs are longer and leaner. I have posted a pic of her under CharlieBoys profile. I took her to the Vet yesterday and he said that at 12 weeks she is already 4 pounds..therefore she will be almost 10 punds at maturity. Is she really a Yorkie??..please advise me. Have I been ripped off?. Her colouring is like a Yorkie tan and black. The breeder showed me her sister and the sister looked like my Silky ChariieBoy. HELP |
If she is 4 lbs at 12 weeks then she would probably be around 8 lbs grown. It is possible she could be a bit smaller or a bit larger. Some yorkies do have coarse coats. It is really hard to judge coat on a 12 week old puppy. If that is her in your avatar she looks like a yorkie to me from what I can tell from the picture. A yorkie is not suppose to have short legs, they should be balanced. A silky is a bit longer in body and there head looks different than a silky. |
