Not a Yorkie?

[PenniesMom]

I had some lady tell me to my face that Penny was not a yorkie cause she isnt silver and tan and she was to small WELL!! it took me a minute to gather myself and then i let loss for your INFORMATION she has not broken color yet because shes only 5 months old and if you could see past your massive brown nose you would actually see she is breaking color on her legs and she is EXACTLY the size she should be at 5.2 lbs then she showed me her "yorkie" which was more of a GIANT cocker spaniel with silver fur must have been 25 lbs im fuming can you tell

[Chevy2]

Nope, can't tell at all Some people are worth the argument, some people are NOT. It's just a matter of picking and choosing our battles

[PenniesMom]

im usually really polite explain she will get maybe another pound but thats all yes she is a puppy yes she will change color but that ladies nose was so far up her butt.....

That's a new one! I always hear mine is to much of a giant to possibly be a yorkie. He's 7 lbs.

sounds like she was just jealous that your yorkie was all yorkie and hers was something else, LOL.

My thoughts exactly, you read so many times of people saying the dog is not a true yorkie because its too big at 5 or 6lb, it just shows ignorance comes from every angle.

[red98vett]

many people THINK a yorkie is an itty bitty dog when in reality they can be normal sized and still be very small (or large depending)

- it's the 'teacup' word that does it - alot of people just don't realize there is no such thing as a teacup yorkie - it's just a selling word - other breeds DO have different size standards (such as a 'toy' poodle etc') but not yorkies.

don't let people like that ever get to you - the best you can do is tell them there's no such thing as a teacup yorkie and let them walk away knowing that vs knowing nothing

That's funny. I always get "he can't be all yorkie, he's too big" (he's 6.5 lbs right now). I tell them he has to be bigger so his body can hold all his personality.

Awesome!!!

[OlivesMommy]

I understand. People keep saying Olive is a boy and Treasure is a girl because of their color difference. I'm like ummm.... what? And I guess because Olive is a little bigger than Treasure, but I don't see what that has to do with anything either. They're both GIRLS. Just because Treasure is timid and Olive loves everybody at first site doesn't mean they're opposite sex, lol. They're just opposite personalities and I love them that way!

[PenniesMom]

I was actually in a great mood to we had just left the vet which is attached to petsmart ( she has to see her fans everytime we go ) and while I was talking to a nurse I had her weighted and I was thrilled we will be 6 months on the first and we are 5.2 pounds I was so excited we FINALLY hit 5 pounds and then this lady oh well she has a great time at petsmart everyone LOVES her I carried her around there when she was 9 weeks old so they have watched her grow they were all thrilled when she started "walking" after her shots were complete that one lady was just a speed bump in our great day

olives mom I get that EVERYDAY boy or girl? shes wearing a pink harness and a pink leash!!

a GIANT cocker spaniel Don't let her bother you...After all, you have a real Yorkie, and she has a cocker spaniel look alike lol....I don't know which rock these kind of people crawl out from under...I've never encountered anyone saying anything about my babies, but I'm sure I'd be gob-smacked too...

[cslat1]

Penny sure looks like a Yorkie to me. Lol. Some people are just ignorant. I'm glad you put her in her place. I get " that's a boy" thing all the time. She wears a pink harness, pink leash and has a pink crystal necklace too? Hello??
Just ignore dumb comments like that.
