Is he too big? - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

One time at my groomer I saw a 25lbs yorkie that is said to be full breed. He looked like a yorkie to me so who knows, it happens.
I think you're very lucky to have found him.

Like I've said, I don't care if he's full blooded or not. He's yorkie to me and he's at least got some yorkie in him. Either way he's my baby and I love him already even though we've only had him for a few days. Just one more thing, when he does eat, he grabs a few pieces of the food in his mouth and walks into where we are at and drops it on the floor then eats one little bity bite at a time, and then goes back for more and does this until he gets his fill. Could this possibly be due to neglect or abuse? As you know, I don't knwo anything about the background about this dog. And although he's friendly in everyway, if he's protective about his food or apprehensive about being watched or snuck up on I may need to do some further training and things with him. The smallest dog I have ever owned previous to Harley was a 75 lb Chow/Lab mix. So any help with small dogs, no matter the breed, would be very helpful.

That does it! He's definitely a yorkie!

A lot of them do this.

Well, its a relief to know that its not from abuse or neglect or anything like that! I'd hate to have to try and fix all those emotional problems and such!
