Donating YT 500 Club Member | Cute... He is so cute!!! He looks good to me....you should see my Ksena....really, go look, it will make you feel better UOTE=YorkieLove77;2633748]I was walking JoJo when I ran into a lady who was walking her 2 Yorkies. We stopped to ooh and ahh over our dogs. I said something along the lines of "it's nice to meet another Yorkie owner." She then told me I must be mistaken because my boy is not a Yorkie. What?? She said first his ears are right on top of his head and they're supposed to be off to the side. Then she said his legs and body are too long and his snout is too long also. Now I realize he's got a long body with long legs, but he's still only 6.5 pounds! But hers were tiny with the babydoll faces, and while he doesn't look like that, I can't believe he's not a Yorkie! Anyway, she told me he's a Silky Terrier. When I got home I googled the Silky, and he doesn't look like that to me! It makes me sad that someone would doubt his "Yorkieness"! Here's a pic of him...what do you guys think? (sorry about the quality...it's off my phone because my camera broke.)[/QUOTE]

i do think that a lot of people are just really misinformed. people always insist that milu IS a TEACUP, not a REGULAR yorkie. they cannot be convinced otherwise. so i don't know, i let them think what they want to think. because it is useless trying to tell them otherwise. (i try, but they look at me like i don't know anything)

i was really confused, so i went to read the description for physical characteristics (American Kennel Club - Yorkshire Terrier) and the description is really vague. well, maybe it's not vague, but since i haven't seen/studied that many yorkies, i don't really know what they mean. i think it's easier for breeders or people who attend a lot of dog shows to be able to tell all the differences in their appearance.

| Why can't people just say "oh, what a cute baby" and walk away? Why must they insist on trying to educate the world when they don't have a clue what they are talking about? I hate people like this. Really don't care for your perception of what the dog is. I would have gone bananas if someone said this to me. What nerve!!! What is wrong with people?....Oh, I know they are ignorant!!! Don't waste your time thinking about this person..they are not worth it. Your baby is a yorkie and is a very cute one at that.

| Someone told me that about my Otis one time too. He isn't standard, he's 9 pounds, black, cotton coated with down ears. It's funny though, other people know he's a yorkie right away. I just love him, I don't care what he is. (but he is a yorkie).

| There are all sorts of different looks for Yorkies! Yours definately looks all yorkie to me. Maybe the callous woman who made that comment was not educated to other looks for Yorkies. All people do not look exactly alike, and all yorkies do not look exactly alike! She was way out of line to doubt you when you told her he was a Yorkie! But just chalk it up to ignorance on her part.
