UG! Tired of hearing she's a Silky... So last week I brought Mia to a groomer for a bath/nail/face trim and I was told AGAIN that she was a Silky and not a Yorkie. I had a different groomer say the same thing to me when I went in for a visit to her shop when I was searching for a groomer for my baby. I brought her in for photos at my studio last week and when everyone sees the pictures they say "are you sure she's yorkie?"... I'm soooooo tired of hearing this, but now I'm starting to question after hearing it so much. I bought a Yorkie from a Yorkie breeder and didn't know anything about Silkies till the first groomer mentioned it. Now after looking at photos Mia's face does look awful long for a yorkie.... Would you all mind taking a peek at my album and let me know what you think? Is she Yorkie????? She is 6 lbs right now and she is 7 months old. http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/album.php?albumid=5119 |
My personal opinion would be Yorkie. She does not have a Silky face, IMO. I went through the samething with Buddy. I think because of the size they assume Silky. I had my doubts also when he was a puppy but all Yorkie he is at 16lbs and I would say your girl is too. |
Dont listen to them... 2 Attachment(s) She's a yorkie don't listen to them, I have had people question my lexie being pure, but I really dont pay much attention to it they think because chuckie and lexie look nothing alike in size or color, they automatically assume she is mixed, they say aren't yorkies suppose to be silver, (lexie is all black & tan) its frustrating I know, but who cares what people think, as long as you love your precious Mia, Screw them :-P |
Jackson gets those comments all the time... he's 14lbs. But that doesn't mean he can't be Yorkie! I questioned it after my groomer told me he was probably part Silky, but looking at him and his personality... he seems all Yorkie to me! Someone told me in Petsmart he looked more Westie?! I was like, huh? |
She looks yorkie to me. That metal tub picture is super cute!! :) |
He looks all yorkie to me. He is a cutie. |
She's a yorkie........not a silky! Next time you take her to the groomer, give her a pair of glasses so she can see better!;) |
Whatever she is, she is beautiful and I can tell from the pictures that you treasure her. I don't think it makes any difference if she is Yorkie or Silky unless you plan to breed her and sell the puppies. |
I own a Silky That is a yorkie She looks NOTHING like a silky. |
She has to be a Yorkie!! The way she poses for the camera!!! |
Can i just say.... I love the pictures of Mia and your daughter!! :thumbup::D |
Thanks so much guys..... I know it doesn't matter I couldn't love her more anyway, it just bugged me and I started to question it myself after hearing it so much. One thing tho.... I will not take her to a groomer that doesn't know the difference!!! What a silly thing to say to a customer. Thanks again everyone! |
She is adorable and looks all yorkie to me. I think silkies are lighter in color. |
She doesn't look anything like a Silky. She is Yorkie, through and through. Pay them no mind. They are ignorant. |
Maybe this is just what i think, but i think she looks litle bit like a Silky :rolleyes: Her nose is a litle too long, and ears too big. Maybe i just think she looks like a silky because how shes groomed, i dont know... This is a Yorkie: http://www.yorkshireterrier.is/hunda...extEdition.jpg and a silky: http://www.silkyterrier.is/hundar/Photos/topaz1.jpg Personally i think she looks like a silky, but there are lots of pure Yorkies who have big ears and long nose so it can ofcaurse be that she's a pure yorkie :) ! Is she AKC Registered? |
