I don't think it's rude to take pictures and only take him if he looks purebred. That's what you are looking for. He is cute though :) |
I dont know alot about yorkies yet but could it be just the angle of the picture??? He is really cute maybe you can see him and see his features better! |
Most dogs that are CKC come from the Amish or puppymills. So I would think he is a yorkie just a lower quality one and I would be worried about health issues. But, I guess you have to ask yourself what am I really getting this puppy for. If its just an addition to your family and his quality doesn't matter than it won't hurt to talk to them about him. |
4 Attachment(s) Ok so we picked up the puppy today. I took pictures of him. We looked at his papers and he is NOT 7 months old, he's a week shy of being 5 months. The paperwork says that he is purebred and it has both of the parents CKC numbers on it. His color is listed as "Blue/Gold". He is 4lbs 3oz. Here are some more pictures.... So what do you think? |
hes cute but... all it takes to CKC the puppies parents as pure yorkies is your buddie to sign a paper saying yep looks like a yorkie to me .. CKC is not worth the paper it is printed on ..many people who buy puppies on limited reg will CkC the dogs to get away with somthing ..or if they find a dog or steal a dog that looks yorkie they have a paper and you just need anyone to verrify yeah I guess it could be pure breed .. take a look at the CKC web page ...also people who dont want akc to do inspections on there paperwork or breeding set up will switch to CKC .. its just like the apri ..not much in security on your puppies back ground .. love your puppie Its cute .. lil Guy |
He looks like a full yorkie, very cute but may not be bred to the standard. Hope it works out, he's a cutie. |
He looks purebred to me, are you planning on breeding him? I wouldn't breed him, but he'll make a perfectly adorable pet. That green eye shine looks all yorkie, and that usually means that he'll have a silky coat. Joey had grey hair on the top when he was a puppy, it turned white, then beige, and now it's a richer gold. |

Awww! It's a toss up for me. I was looking at a yorkie/min pin mix and if you seen her you would have never guessed she was not a full blooded yorkie. She had the face, body, coat everything like a yorkie. It can be hard to tell, sometimes the mixes will take after one breed more than the other. Regardless, he is a cutie. I hope it works out with him, he looks like a keeper what ever he is.;) |
It's really hard to say....I've seen yorkie mixes that look more yorkie-like than some supposedly purebred yorkies. When you have so many people breeding pet quality yorkies, you get dogs that deviate very far from the standard. He's a cute little puppy..probably a purebred yorkie, just very pet quality. He looks like he has a coarser coat which won't grow well. |

Here's a picture of Joey at around the same age, notice the hair coloring, and it just got lighter and lighter, and for a while he looked bald. http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/alb...pictureid=1872 |
Girl, I think you have become the Angelina of lost Yorkies...LOL He's a doll and as long as you love him and he gets along with Molly, go for it! (Well, as long as your husband approves. Plus now, you'll have his and her dogs.) How is Molly reacting to a new family member? It seems like a good time for another since they can adjust together plus keep each other company...a built-in playmate! I'm excited for you albeit just a bit jealous. When I met you we were both Yorkieless and waiting. Now you have two and I'm still waiting but fortunately with an end in sight. I'm so happy for you! |
You can compare these pics.... 3 Attachment(s) Here is a little female that is AKC and both her parents have CH in their pedigree. She came from a litter we had from Peaches and Rowdy born on Oct 15th, 2008. Attachment 266432 Attachment 266433 Attachment 266434 She has shorter, very soft hair, but grows very slow. Even her nails grow slow, have only trimmed them once. She is also 4 1/2 months old and weighs 29 oz and has held that weight for the past month. While her brothers, on the other hand, have a much thicker, coat and is still really soft but totally different texture than she has; and while she will be way under the standard weight, they s/b within or close. I think her coat even looks a little shorter than his. Does this help with comparison as far as "if it looks like a real yorkie?" I think he's adorable, and I was wondering how he's doing? Getting along with the family? And if he's a little keeper? Maybe? He is pretty adorable. |
