| Platinum Yorkie? So... I currently have have one yorkie my baby Vinny, well I decided I needed to get him a friend and have looked at a few puppies. Well I just fell in love with one little girl and put a deposit on her. Well the lady (this is her first littler so I guess she is not a breeder) told me the father was a platinum yorkie. She had both parents on site and he was almost all silver on his back and had a golden face. So instead of black he was silver? Is this an "platinum yorkie" or is this just a scam of sorts? Well not really a scam because she is going to be a pet and I thought the coloring was cute... but more a common or recognized color? |

| Maybe I explained that wrong. Sorry. I guess his back was almost white.. his hole body was almost with but with a little shine to it and his face was more silverish but a tint darker than the body... not really gold. I wish I had a photo.

That picture looks more like a Morkie to me, noticed the size and shape of the eyes as well as the tear stains, very common in Maltese.

| I have seen some that are very light like that and they are just a yorkie. There is no such thing as a platinum yorkie. The breedeer caan call them what she wants I quess but dont pay more because shes telling you that your getting something unique because your not. I have seen very dark yorkies and very light yorkies

I just used that to color compare... he looked very much like a yorkie even more in the face. He was also AKC registered.

| Here is a picture of a female I owned about 7 years ago. Is this the color you are talking about. This female was very light but she had the silkest coat. It never matted and was so so soft. We called her Yap Yap because that is what she did every time I tried to walk out of the room. |
