Oh i think hes a great big huggable "Teddy Bear" :D

he does have some adorable poses and he is healthy and definitly huggable and lovable

I'd love to see pictures of your female, too! :D

I think he is just adorable. Its good that you asked everyones opions and I would also like to say that if you do breed him you might have trouble with him marking later. and then you may not. If you want to breed him for pets for your family then I dont see a problem with it. I think hes just adorable. But thats a decission you have to make. I might even breed mine one time, Im have not decided yet.But I wish you luck in what ever you decide.

Sweetie, this is what you aim for in top line and coat
 

A straight back or topline is a must and coat can vary alot. You aim for silk
that feels cool to the touch and reflects light. There is no perfect dog but
like others were saying once you see more closer to the standard that will
stay with you it's just there in your mind at all times. This picture will show
you how you would want your little guy's back to be. Pat, can tell you how
the coat color changes through their lives. The library is a place that can
give you lots of help....you already have come to a great place to learn.
I admire you so much for how well you have taken the advise and dealt with
constructive criticism....you have what it takes because you listen.

This dog has perfect color too but believe me even this dog I bet has a fault

and healthly and hugable are important.

Remember to be responsible
 

Here's me being honest: IMO, if you want to be a yorkie breeder do it for the good of the breed, not for the good of just one dog or yourself. Also, be a responsible breeder. Do home visits, check references, require contracts, interview potential buyers. If they aren't good material turn them down. These neices might make good yorkie moms, but in 5 years, if they can't keep one of your pups will you be able and willing to take one or both back? If you can't take the dog back during it's lifetime, you shouldn't breed.

You wouldn't bring human children into the world if you couldn't provide for them would you? A responsible breeder (again, my opinion) will take a dog back during their lifetime if the buyer can't keep or isn't taking good care of the dog.

If you can do all this, then find a responsible, local yorkie breeder who will look at your dog and give you their honest opinion about your dog.

actually if i had more room i would have more pets! i have 3 dogs a fish and 2 rabbits and 2 kids. i wouldnt mind at all having a couple more yorkies. we are getting ready to move to our new house this march. once we get to the new house we will have more room for more pets lol. see i wish you all knew more about me. im very responsible. until i got my 2 baby yorkies i used to bring home dogs from the animal shelter and find them homes so they wouldnt get youthanzied, i was a foster parent for many many puppies sometimes 2 batches of pups at a time. i stopped because i didnt want to endager them i knew they were fragile pups.if my nieces ever decided to leave the nest and didnt want the pups anymore i would gladly take any puppy back. they are very responsible kids and there mom my sister is single and would never give the pups up. theres a little jealousy going on with my nephew that was born last year. she has that baby fever going on . i think yorkie would be much better then a baby. the yorkies would now be her babys. i had back up plans. but i dont think i will breed him any way. if hes not fitting the breed standard. trying to do this right. thanks for your reply :)

thank you for your pic and reply. the yorkie pictured below your reply is beautiful! as far as the truth i would rather the truth cause you cant learn from lies. its so hard cause alot of people around here do breed yorkies but there yorkies dont meet standard either. when i logged on to this website i was able to see much more yorkies including show yorkies. ive said this before i wish i had this site before i went shopping for yorkies. you live and learn. it is perfectly clear sampson is not breeding quality thats even minusing the ears and bad haircut. now i have to post a pic of my feamle and see what everyone thinks of her. now i know shes not show quality! i think she would be too big for show shes 7 lbs.but there maybe alot of other faults im not seeing with her also. thanks for helping i trully appreciate all of the responses. hey if i want to become a breeder my first lesson is come to yorkie talk first!!!!

You had your first leason in yorkie 101. You had a lot of imput on your male- and what others thought about your using him for breeding and why. Take this information- if your little girl has the same problems as your male you may want to rethink breeding her also. deep down in your heart you will know the answer. Love her and your male as the devoted and caring compainions they are to you and your family.

ok here are the pics of my female. please disregard the ears i have mentioned before thats my fault. im going to try that idea with the cardboard and eyelash glue to help then stand. i know they have potential to stand up because they have before after being shaved down. just didnt know when i first got her and sampson. she also looks a little fluffy , her hair was just blow dried. boy does she love the drier! ok makya is 11 months old she is 7lbs i will post more pics but this is all i have in my computer at the moment. :)

i do love them. if i shouldnt breed them well then thats just life! i wont be heart broken! i will just be a little dry in the pocketbook.lol i love my animals they are our family members. i will have to buy another yorkie cash instead of having one of sampson and makyas children. i posted some pics of her and your right i have enough information and maybe im wrong but i think she may not be a good candidate either. we will see what the yorkie talk members have to say and like i said if i cant then i cant but i know plenty of people here now that i know i can find a good looking yorkie in the future. thanks!! and dont forget to give me your opinoin about my female it was posted 2 seconds after your reply. thanks agian!

I think that I said everything in my last post. There is no reason to rehash
what has already been said. You were gave a lot of valuable advice about your male from very knowlegable breeders - take that information and learn. The same things will apply to your female regarding whether she should br bred or not. There is no reason to go over it all again. You know the answer in you heart.
