I was leary but I didnt see why anyone would lie about their pups age so I was just ??

I say if it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck...it's a duck!

If it doesn't make sense it's not true. I don't believe that is a 4 month old puppy. I have seen a thousand pups here on yt alone...that is no 4 month old dog.

Your puppy is a cutie! (Not a big fan of sweet potatoes!)

Sorry...had a business meeting!
Gosh~~some people are so cynical~~iI would know my own puppy's age...don't you think?

Well this is how the story goes...
It's 10% tiny puppy 90% GIGANTIC sweet potato!

Apollo wasn't miniscule but a bit smaller than the average yorkie~~the vet kept saying, "He's really healthy but small." He's not a teacup but the picture sure does make him look like one!

Now the sweet potato~~ I was actually present when the grower harvested the sweet potato.
When I first saw the sweet potato, my mind didn't register it~~I was in shock or something. That thing seriously scared me. I love sweet potatoes so I eat them on a weekly basis. The ones I've encountered are roughly the size of a man's hand. To make a long story short...I guess this sweet potato hogged all the nutrients because the ones that grew next to it looked like ping pong balls!

So yeah~~ that sweet potato was (past tense because we ate it for Christmas) the size of a four-month old yorkie! It probably weighed three times puppy!

Sorry the explanation is so jumbled! I'm in a hurry and typing on my iPhone!

But yeah!!!! I still have nightmares about that darn sweet potato!

does not look like a 4 month old

I do believe that is a large sweet potato but the yorkie...4months old?? Sure is a cutie though

I think the huge sweet potato causes almost an optical illusion....makes the puppy seem a lot smaller/younger. Great pic!

Am I missing something here? I know the puppy might be smaller than the average yorkie (I'm currently living in another country and the average adult yorkie here is between four and five pounds) but jeeze~~ to insinuate that my claim is untrue?? I thought we come here to share stories, experiences, pictures, and gather information~~
Well, thank you to those who are actually open-minded enough to accept the truth! I really appreciate it!

Thank you!!! I was actually going to say the exact same thing~~Nice to know some people can think outside the box.

Don't let it bother ya! To each his own, right? ;) Also, sometimes tone is hard to read.

Your pup looks very cute! You'll have to share some more pics...we all love seeing these cutie pies!

Thank you!! I think he will be the lighter type...the more silvery blue! I am doing the best I can to maintain that silky texture~~

To me, the optical illusion is the best part and really thought people would "get it".
By the way, we're still trying to finish that sweet potato. I might hate sweet potatoes after this.

I agree, the optical illusion is great! Look at it this way....the illusion was SO GOOD it convinced people it was a fake! :p

Can't yelp ya on the sweet potato part...I prefer my taters unsweetened! ;)

Agreed!

There is no such thing as teacups unless you are referring to the things you drink tea out of :)
