| My first Thread, Hi everyone This is my first time on a yorkie forum. We just had to put down our yorkie Shelby a couple of months ago. She wieghted 3.5 to 4 lbs. We had her for about 4 years, she was left abanded at the vet that my daugther worked for and we took her in. Not sure how old she was but we est. around 12 0r 13 years. She had very silky long hair and long nose. We really would like to get another one like her, we really miss Shelby. Can anyone help me what to look for, most yorkies I see now has a short stubby nose, Shelby had a slendar nose that looked a little longer than most breeds. We want to try and find one as close to her as possible. |

| Welcome to Yorkie Talk! I sorry to hear about your Shelby. In order to try to find one that has similar features my advice would be to visit plenty of breeders to look for that perfect one... you'll know it when you see him/her. Take your time looking. Good luck to you!

| Hi there and welcome to YT ! I am very sorry of your loss . I hope you can find the perfect yorkie puppy that your looking for. I am going to suggest that you look at some pictures of a Silk Terrier. This breed has the more prominent muzzle, and can look very close to a Yorkie.

Living My Yorkie Dream Donating Member | Welcome to YT. How tough it is to lose a fur-friend. You were an angel to take Shelby in after she was abandoned. If you are looking for a yorkie puppy, you might have a hard time finding one with a muzzle like Shelby's since they change so much as they grow. Since you adopted Shelby as an adult, you might want to check out some yorkie rescue groups. There are likely adults with these groups and you might have luck finding one that has similar looks to Shelby's that way. Good luck to you!
