Your pup is a cutie. Don't let others comments get to you, I know it is a hard thing to do at first...
When Suri was a few months old, she weighed about a pound and some change... I went to the Petsmart Halloween contest and this lady came up to me, being very snobby and asked how much she weighed and how old she was. So I told her and she was like wow your dog is going to be big! My jaw dropped...big? She then showed me a dog that she clamied was a teacup and how he would stay this size. He was small and I asked how old he was and he was only 3 months old and about 3 pounds. She then tried to sell the pup to people there and she kept saying he will be smaller then that big one over there.
(They kicked her out because turned out she was the owner of a local pet store trying to sell dogs out of her car!!)
Another one was recently...a guy came up and told me how cute Suri was. He asked if she was a teacup and I explained to him why that word was used. But he swore he saw pictures of a puppy in a tea cup, so Suri must be a big one. (Suri is 9 months old and 2 pounds.)
Big or small it seems like the general public is not very knowledgeable about the yorkie breed. Sometimes the comments make your blood boil and some are kind of funny (like the one where they ask me where I put the batteries
)...I picked Suri because she was a doll and I fell in love with her...she was the bigger of the litter and like my breeder said, I guess you were ment to have a little one.
All in all...ignorant people are just ignorant people and should really think before they talk but they don't...so as long as you love your baby and they love you, that is all that matters.
