|  New to Yorkie Talk Hi! I wanted to introduce myself...I'm new to Yorkie talk. I have one yorkie named Maya who is 5 and a black lab named Molly who is 7 1/2. My sister got me hooked on this site...she also started my love of yorkies...and I think animals in general  My husband and I have always though Maya was a mix (although I'm pretty sure she came from a reputable breeder) b/c she isn't typical yorkie size. She is about 14 lbs...not over weight at all that is just her build. I've asked the vet and he said she is perfectly healthy as far as weight goes and is just a larger breed of yorkie. Does anyone else have a larger size yorkie? I LOVE her to death and actually think her size has been good for her since we have a lab she loves to keep up with. She has the sweetest heart and I think b/c of her we will always have a yorkie in this home. If you look at my pics you'll notice her ears don't stand up...they never have. Any ideas as to why? Excited to be on here!! |

| Welcome! I'm new here too, and I'm loving it so far. Everyone has lots of great information. My little guy is a little bigger than other Yorkies as well. He's about 8 lbs. Maya is adorable!! Duke's ears are down too. They were up then they fell for a couple weeks, and I read that teething could be the problem. They were up and now have been down again for about 2 months. I have a feeling they will stay that way. I have read you can tape them, but I hesitate as I'm afraid to cause harm to them. I wouldn't worry about her ears she is way to cute now. |

|  Hi Hi, i'm new too. Your Maya is so cute. I don't know if it'd work on yorkies but when I raised German Shephards, I would manage their ears & gently smooth the ear up. I sold a yorkie pup recently & his ears stood up in the beginning but are now floppy & his owners love them that way! As to Maya's size, I have heard of several yorkies over 10 lbs. Remember, yorkies were larger & have been bred down to smaller sizes. |
