Yorkie - The new pit bull? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I just had to share this story. I had total knee replacement this winter and was laid up for awhile so a friend of my would come by and take my 2 yorkies for their walk. One day she came by and said it was a little chilly so they would probably need their coats on. I put their coats on them and off they went. When they came back my friend Ann started laughing and said I wouldn't believe what happened on their walk. (You have to picture these two cute little yorkies in their pretty little coats walking down the sidewalk) an elderly man was pushing his granddaughter on the swings and when he turned and saw my puppies he yelled out to my friend "Are those Pit Bulls?" My friend said she held her laughter but told him no they were yorkies. She said the way he said it was like she had two maneaters on their leashes. Now one of my dog's wears a size small and the other one wears a size extra small so that should tell you. I just think that is the funniest thing.

I always tell people that they are born looking like rottweilers and never forget it.

Sounds like grandpa needs to get new glasses.

No, that's the funny part - he was very serious. Ann said he acted as if they might attach and they were just bouncing along on their leashes. I really want to post photos of my two beauties but haven't figured out how yet. As soon as I do I'll post photos.
