| I gotcha now...sorry I'm so tired on here...the boy wakes up to go to work at 3 am and I'm his designated secondary alarm clock so I've been on a very, unusual sleeping pattern...doing my hobby Yorkie research and what not at the odd hours! probably not the best idea for making a whole lot of sense sometimes! I've stayed curious as to the whole historical size difference or average size difference between Europe and here...which now seems to be virtually identical. I recently was told that a Biewer was a Parti they are just from separated lines and prior though they were the same, then separate...not to bring that whole can of worms into this but as an example of, depending on who you talk to and how you interpret the meaning of something based on the history things seem to get confusing a bit at times...then again Yorkies really have a wide range of variations...seems to me more than most breeds do. Celebrating their diversity and common traits is such a nice thing, and I enjoy YT for that. |

What a great post... I love researching the history of the different breeds -- at least the ones I have I also did research the Yorkies when I was looking into getting one. The breed has changed so much that I think the backbiting about size is misplaced! The concerns I have are the health issues.. which I agree is often linked to size and in that case I have anger too. I had a "discussion" with dh just this morning about the term teacup. My sister in law visited someone who had a yorkie.. of course she raved about how cute and small -- teacup--now I got my feathers up and started in with "teacup is a marking term not true not healthy" and my husband made the statement.. People who have done the research don't know that, you can't put them down just explain. Also why are you amazed that breeders are doing it for the money? .. hmmm dh good point!!
