|  In your opinion is my Chewie a Silky/Yorkie/Mixture? I couldn't care less either way as I love him to pieces regardless, but we were at my fiance's aunt and uncle's house the other night, who own two Yorkies, and his aunt mentioned that she thought Chewie was a Silky Terrier and not a Yorkie. When I bought him, he was sold to me as a Yorkie...I actually had no idea about the Silky Terrier breed until the other night. He's 6-months-old, weighs about 6-7 pounds (a guesstimation, last official weigh in was 5lbs over 2 months ago). He is registered with CKC (which I know should be taken with a grain of salt)... When we bought him, he wasn't cheap, but he didn't cost an arm and a leg either (compared to some prices I've seen for Yorkies), so again it doesn't really matter to me or my fiance, as he's our little prince charming, but it would be nice to know. What do you guys think?  I've read the AKC description of both breeds, but I feel like I'm not in a position to say either way what he is. Just thought I'd ask you guys

|  He looks like a yorkie to me a little cutie. She may of been going by his size but lots of yorkies get bigger.

| My personal opinion is that he is a Yorkie. Silkies are very different... All Yorkies are not made from a cookie cutter pattern, so there are all sizes, all colors, ears erect, ears floppy, hair silky or cotton, hair straight or somewhat curly, and many other things....looks like he is going to be silver and gold, a pretty color combination.

| I agree with everyone he looks like a Yorkie to me. They don't all look the same my nieces Yorkie is 3lbs bigger than Georgie and his face looks very different but they are both Yorkies. I think the "standard" Yorkie is between 4-7lbs but I also have seen plenty of Yorkies over 7lbs. I am in no way an expert just what I have read. BTW Chewy is so cute!!!

| He's a yorkie to me. But it's hard to tell unless you do one of those DNA tests that will show it's real background |
