Lol, if anyone ever asks you what breed it is, you can tell them it's a Yorkshire Terrier, and you can prove it! :D |

Yep she's a yorkie and a very cute one at that. :D |
Thats awesome.. congrats!!!!!!So what do you think??? Should I test Arizona??? |
I haven't read this whole thread, so this may have been suggested. You can have her DNA tested to see just what breed she is. Your vet should be able to tell you where to get this done. I have one that I swear is half weenie dog. She is a year old and only weighs 3 lbs, but is two dogs long and 1/2 a dog high. I didn't want her when we got her, but we had lost our beloved Ruby 2 days before and my Hubbie would have bought a St. Bernard if they told him it was Yorkie. She weighed 3 lbs when we bought her. She was 6 mo old. I hoped she would gain some weight, but she weighs exactly what she did the day we bought her. We gave $1,200 for her. We love her, but she is sooooo ugly. |

I'm not computer savy and don't know how to post pictures. I don't even have a camera. I wish I did. She really is so ugly she is cute. We call her Punky. Short for Pumpkin Spice. (We got her on Halloween) It fits her because her face is so small and her hair stands up all over her head like a punk rocker. She picks pockets and goes through purses. You don't dare leave anything where she can get into the pockets. She also loves my cell phone. |

Congradulations rebecag The dna test makes sense to me because the Yorkshire Terrier was developed from other terrier breeds in England and some of those breeds are now extinct. And in the time line of evolution of dog from wolf it wasn't that far back. I want to thank you for letting us into your adventure, I know it helped me resolve some doubts about some of my Yorkies. You can't google this kind of one on one information. I have sometime had puppies get too big, bigger than their parents, "bat" ears, reddish coloring, etc. and it is not apparent in their parents. Of course I sell them less expensive and as companions and try harder for good solid socialization for them. Because what it comes down to the Yorkshire Terrier is the best dog in the world for men,woman and children, I try for the standard in all my breeding programs but sometimes you get little throw backs.Lol Again Thank you :) |

Just read that your got the DNA results back and she is a yorkie. At least you know now. She'll probably change as she gets older, you'll see. do you have any recent pictures of her? i saw the ones in your album but was wondering if you took anymore |

I'm so happy you found out she really is a Yorkie. I think my Punky is too, it really makes no difference. We love her no matter what, and I always have my pets spayed or neutered. Punky was spayed as soon as I got her. I had no plans to breed. |
That's such great news! I'm very happy she's a yorkie. Good for the dog, good for the breeder, good for you. I thought she looked like a chi mix, so I've learned something here too about the wide range of yorkie looks. Congrats on your darling girl. |
For the record... Quote:

Thanks again to everyone who posted! I appreciate all of your opinions and comments...it was tremendously helpful!!!!!!!!!!! |
Yorkies I think that is the beauty of Yorkies......they can all look so different.....but they are Yorkies just the same......:cool: |
Okay, I'm not the only one who reads the second part of the breed detection right? The part that says: There are also signals from other breeds which are not strong enough to identify with confidence. How can these faint signals occur? There are two possibilities. First, your dog could have mixed-breed ancestors beyond three generations back. A second reason is that our test may not yet cover one of the breeds in your dog's ancestry. I'm trying to ignore it but my mind won't let me, it does say there are other breeds detected either from 3 generations past or not in data base....... I'll talk to the vet in the morning...... |
Sure, talk to your vet, and I will be interested to hear the answer. Keep in mind though that if it's more than 3 generations back, this is 1/16th max. AND people have said that sometimes yorkies just look like that when they are young. I would say the odds are pretty strong that she is full yorkie. Personally, I wouldn't worry. |
chorkies If you look at my profile pic, the darker one is Bailey and she's a Chorkie. She is taller, like a Chi, but the coloring is all yorkie! My long haired chi looked so different from any chi I ever saw, I thought she was a mix. Then I walked by a pet store and thought I was looking at my little Bella! You never know what she'll end up looking like. Just give it some time and she may end up looking just like your other baby. |
