What do you think.... 3 Attachment(s) My aunt and a few others are constantly telling me Nala isn't a Yokie, that she's a Silky. Personally I don't care if she half elephant and half racoon I love her just the same. It just that it's really getting on my nerves. Almost like that just want to prove me wrong. It's not going to hurt my feelings either way. Nala is 10lbs and yes a "big" yorkie and yes she is a little long but I know there's many other members on here that have yorkies of all shapes, sizes and colors. Nala parents are CKC and I have the papers from with their names and registration on it. I never saw the parents b/c she was a surprise present from by boyfriend so I didn't go with him to pick her up. A friend of mine bought her brother and no one questions him I guess because he is within the standard 7-8lbs. Here are acouple of pictures of Nala will you tell me what you think? If you think she is Silky I promise it will not hurt my feelings. She has been to the vet and a groomer that has been in the "dog business" for over 20 years and she has never question her breed. |
I think she is wonderful too, just as you say. I am no expert at all but I think she really resembles Schatzie and she's a Yorkie. :D I understand your frustration of being filled with everyone's opinion when you are not asking for it. Just ignore them and give Nala hugs and kisses. Oh, and Schatzie is big/long also. She is 8 lbs. |
She looks like a yorkie to me!! Of course, I'm no expert. I'm sure the more experienced breeders here will give you a better idea. By the way, I think it is incredibly rude for anyone to tell you what your dog is or isn't! :mad: Your aunt and those other people need to mind their own business! I've had people tell me their dog is this or that or their cat is this or that when it is obviously a cross/mix, but I would never tell them otherwise and I certainly wouldn't tell someone their purebread yorkie is really a silky. The nerve of some people! :thumbdown |
To be honest I'm not sure - she looks very yorkie though to me. And BTW absolutely gorgeous :) |
half the yorkies on this site could be accused of being silkies. nala is beautiful. lol to, "i wouldn't care if she was half racoon and half elephant." thats funny. just ignore them. you love her and she loves you and thats all that matters! |
I think the reason most people say that and I use to be quilty of it too is b/c Nala itsn't the size of a mouse! Schatzie, I personally think Nala and Schatzie look alot alike. I agree it's very rude for someone to say "Well she's too big she can't be a yorkie". |
I think she looks all yorkie..people are funny...I know Maximus is all yorkie (according to pedigree tree)..but for some reason I have had 4 or 5 random people in the street ask if he was a silkie..even though he looks like a yorkie to me..I was starting to get suspicious too!!!! |
she very cute but she does look like my kayko who is a silky who cares tho both great breeds and she is gorgeous |
She looks like a beautiful Yorkie princess to me! It's wrong for someone to say that "she's too big to me a Yorkie." I've seen some Yorkie closed to 15 lbs before and they are just a beautiful as a 3 lbs Yorkie!! |
She looks like a Yorkie to me and she is just beautiful. I know how you feel. The first reaction I get from people when they see Sophie is OMG she's big. I know she is big but what about how cute and sweet she is. She is a 10 pounder. Some people can be so rude. |
The bigger the better ... more to love and squeeze! :yorkiesar |
Sweetie - my Chanel is ALL yorkie and 10 pounds too - let your heart go with your baby ...she's yours now and that's all that matters - I think she is just BEAUTIFUL ...don't let anyone question you - They only WISH they had a baby like this ! |
Brownie's Mom Do all silky's have silky hair? |
I know how you feel...Even if she might look like a silky, doesn't mean she is a silky...You've obviously got her papers that say she's a yorkie. She's just a slightly bigger yorkie, that's all, and I think she's adorable!! My yorkie is also bigger...He is about 9 lbs!! |
Looks like a yorkie to me! Our girl is also larger than average - 10 pounds - but extremely healthy, which is the most important thing! |
SHE'S BEAUTIFUL! If only Coco was a boy...oooh la la...And tell everyone to mind their own bees wax (As I used to say in the 3rd grade..hehe) |
One of the most important things I have learned about yorkies is that they all look so different! They aren't the same - just like us people! I use to think they were all pretty much alike, about the same size and structure, but since coming to YT I have found that although there is a 'standard', most yorkies don't fit it! If, in your heart, you have a yorkie - then you have a yorkie, simple as that. Next time someone says your baby doesn't look like a yorkie tell them they don't look like a human either but you love them just the same! Windy and Lida Rose |
She looks like a Yorkie to me. I have to explain to people all the time that bigger yorkies are normal. I was told that Asia will likely get to be 8lbs and I saw how big her mother is. I think she will get to 10lbs. I love her anyway. I was at Petsmart on Sunday and the people behind me had a 15 week yorkie that was the same size as Asia at that age. I think the lady was a little distressed when she saw that Asia was already 6lbs at 5 months. I hope she is not to upset if her baby turns out to to be bigger than she planed. If she is, I'll be glad to take it off her hands. |
I am not sure, sorry I can't help you...but Nala is beautiful and looks Yorkish from my point of view!! Don't worry about anyone else, as long as you love her that is all that matters, the bigger the better!!! Poo on everyone else....lol... |
1 Attachment(s) I think these are her parents...LOL! |
If she is any thing like Asia she did not take after the turtle. |
Looks like a Yorkie with healthy hair. I can use some pointers on how to get that shine. |
Nala When people ask if she is a Yorkie..tell them she is not 100% Yorkie, she is 200% Yorkie..Nala is just oversized and a bit more terrier in type, a perfect combination for Nala. |
Nala is beautiful . She is a yorkie . She have the same adorable face as Betty Lou ( the Yorkie of my friend ) . Your aunt would have something to bla bla bla about because lol... Betty Lou is 7 pounds and her color is silver and gold |
Nala is absolutely beautiful. Looks like a Yorkie to me. She has the same face as my Mellie :D |
Nala definitely looks like a Yorkie! She is so gorgeous! |
shes beautiful ,she looks like a yorkie to me . :) |
All of you are soo sweet. I didn't care before if she was or wasn't a purebred yorkie but now I really don't because you guys got me past being annoyed and helped me to see what's most important; she's my baby and I love her and that's all that matters!!! Vainchick5 - That's funny even though Coco isn't a boy Nala will still share her toys with her, lol. We better keep a close eye on them. Sophiedog - That's a great way to look at things, I think I just might say that next time someone says she doesn't look like a yorkie. Suzysmitt - The only reason Nala's hair looks so good is b/c I had just picked her up from the groomers lol most of the time Nala looks like she has a sever case of the dreaded "BEDHEAD" Her coat is exremely rough/cottony. Thank you to everyone for all the sweet compliments on my baby!! |
www.amronsilkyterriers.com Check out this guy's page, I can't tell a huge difference between silkies and yorkies anyhow!! I know they are different breeds but so close!! |
Nala is a beauty . |
