i don't know for sure about purebred. they both look like it to me, but who cares they are super cute and i'd snatch em' both up in a hurry.

That little boy oh I could eat him

They are both adults. The boy looks more like a puppy bc of his dark saddle, but look at both their faces, no more thumbprints. The gray takes a long time to grow out, I'd say they are at least 2 years old. The boy is really cute. Looks like he has a cotton coat though. The girls coloring is just like Uni's! Hope you get one of them!

They are both adorable. Good luck.

LaurenPatrice · 11-10-2010, 03:23 PM

Omg that little boy is the cutest thing! His face just makes me smile

! I hope you get one or both hehe

So how did the shelter visit go? Are you home with 2 new babies?

The Humane Society is NOT a no kill shelter but they have strict criteria for euthanizing. Usually very old, sick or agressive dogs. The other poster from MN is right about little dogs getting adopted very fast in Minnesota.

I took the day off of work to go look at them today and then I found out that the shelter was closed all day for a big staff meeting. ARGH ! I have a friend that is a vet tech at one of the branches of this shelter. She pulled some strings and they are going to put the little girl on hold for me tomorrow when they open so I can go look at her after I get off of work. In the meantime yet ANOTHER yorkie puppy showed up for adoption at the Humane Society. 7 months old. His pic is below.

Why are so many yorkie puppies showing up at the Humane Society ? Im a little surprised at that.

I will update tomorrow night and let everyone know if I gor the little girl.

Thanks so much for all the responses. I agree that the girl is older. Iam still undecided if she looks purebred.

OMG he has Conan O brien hair! Love it!

You know i just looked at the ages again. I'm thinking they must mean years and not months and mistakenly put in months. Who could know how many months in tenths? That would be like saying 6 months and 10 days. Who does that? This last guy is definitely not 6 months either, probably 6 years.

They are all cute! Hope you get the girl! btw, just bc they don't "look" purebred doesn't mean they aren't. Many byb will breed yorkies that aren't to the standard looks-wise, but they are still yorkies.
