| New Mommy I bought my first puppy from a pet store. I tried to adopt but they never answered my applications. He is 4 months old and is supposed to be a pure breed yorkie. However, I been having my doubts that they lied to me because he is already 7.5 lbs. I really do not care if he is mixed but they overcharged me on the fact that he is pure breed yorkie. Can anyone tell me if he can just be a big yorkie???? thanks |

| Welcome to you and your baby! My little guy is 3/4 yorkie & 1/4 chi, and he's 8-9lbs. Just cause he's bigger doesn't necessarily mean he's not purebred, just means there's more to LOVE!!! As long as he's happy & healthy, that's the main thing.
