Help! I think my baby might be a silky?! 1 Attachment(s) I have a boy, Charlie who looks exactly like a typical yorkie should, he's a little over 5lbs. About 7 months ago I bought my second baby, Chloe, and although her papers say her parents were both Yorkies, she is 8 lbs and is 11 months and doesnt look like Charlie at all, shes longer and is her body is all silver, and her head is golden. I know Yorkies can vary in appearance but on top of it all, people keep asking me if she is a silky. How would I know? Here is a picture of Chloe and Charlie together so you can see the difference (Charlie is the black one!) |
They both look like yorkies to me. There are different looks, sizes and coloring to yorkies. |
I agree they both look like Yorkies to me, and they do come all sizes and color variations. |
Oh and I wouldnt worry about anyone saying Chloe looks like a silky. It is common for people to think bigger yorkies are silkys when they are not they are just bigger yorkies. My Groomer thought My Chachi was a silky because hes about 5 lbs bigger than my Jewels. On here we call the yorkies over 7 lbs teapots |
Hi there , and welcome to YT :D You have Two beautiful yorkies. Your Chloe is 100% full yorkie to me! She is a silver blue yorkie.. That is her coloring, and is recognized as a pure bred Yorkie! Even though her weight is higher then 7lbs , she is still a Yorkie . There a a lot of people here on YT that get rude comments from strangers all the time about their Yorkies ! Try not to let it upset you. Your Chloe is a yorkie and she is precious. :aimeeyork |
Welcome to YT!!! Definitely Yorkie:p Such cute babies:) |
Looks like yorkie to me :) |
Size matters Our neighbors two doors down bought a Yorkie pup 7 or 8 months ago from a big chain pet store (one that I boycott). Well, a couple of months ago they became alarmed by his size (he now tips the scales @ 16-17 lbs.) and ordered a DNA test, which came back 95% Yorkie, 5% undetermined....anyone heard of this ? My wife & I joke they have a part Yorkie, part Rottweiler mix !!!!!!! |
Thank you!! You've all made me feel so much better! Even if she was a silky I would ofcourse still love her, but its good to know that you all think shes a yorkie :) I'm still new to YT but I will update/post more pictures!! |

Ha! This post reminds me of the other day when I searched yorkies on petfinder.com. I kid you not - I found a yorkie-lab mix!! :eek: At first, I thought it was a typo - but it was referenced again in the description. If it was true, then I guess a Rot-kie is not far from reality?? |
They are absolutly 2 cuties. |
1 Attachment(s) She's Yorkie for sure. She looks just like my Zada who is 9 pounds of perfection, and I'll attach a picture for you to see. |
Looks like a Yorkie to me!!:) You have 2 very cute babies!!! |

She's a yorkie, without a doubt. And a very sweet and adorable one. :aimeeyork |
She looks alot like my sisters Yorkie....little longer snout and coloring...GORGEOUS!! 100% Yorkie!!! |
Both of your little beauties look like Yorkies to me. It never ceases to amaze me looking at the pictures of the yorkies here at YT -- their is a vast difference in appearances, weights and body structures. Your Charlie and Chloe are both precious! I hope you share lots of pics! |
Chloe looks all Yorkie to me, and a beautiful one at that! :thumbup: They are both very cute. You're lucky! |
I'm in the same boat, I think I may buy a dna test off the internet. |

I also am a bit confused cause bother her parents were yorkies (according to the akc papers), so i dont know why people says she looks like a silkie Either way I would still love her |
Two beautiful Yorkie babies. I get that a lot about my Zoe because she is big, 12 pounds. Her picture is in my avatar. I think a lot of people think because they are not on the small size that they can't be pure bread yorkies, but we all know that this isn't so. Enjoy your babies and don't let what other people say make you worry. Have a great day. :p |
my 2 Yorkies are very different too! 4 Attachment(s) My Charlie is 4.5 pounds at 10 months and soft as satin with a fast growing curly coat. I was surprised (just like you) when I got my second Yorkie "Belle" ..she is only 6 months but already 7.5 pounds and she is much longer with a narrower snout and coarse hair. Her coat is slow growing and she has a patch of silver hair on the top of her head. They seem to look quite different. |
