I guess if you really want to know you could do a DNA test. Gabby's ears do not stand up all the time.I think if do a search here and you will find some idea's on how you can help your dogs ears stand up.

She looks purebred to me, maybe just not to standard. She's a cutie. You could do a dna test if you really wanted to know.

Congratulations your puppy she is very cute, she does look pure yorkie to me as well. Once you are around the breed more and spend some time in this forum you will see that yorkies have many looks. Most new to the breed think all yorkies are going to look like what they have seen from photos in books and magazines. Those dogs are often show quality dogs which means they are bred carefully with a long well researched blood line that will help insure they are born to show standards. Those standards are small pointed ears, long silky type coat, sort of fine boned, medium muzzle and a head that clears which means there should be no grey or black. Show breeders will sell pups at about 12-16 weeks and even older for two reasons, the main reason is since their object when breeding is to get another show pup, it takes at least 12 weeks for them to get a sense if the puppy will be show worthy. Also it is best to keep small breeds with their momma until around 12 weeks. If you buy from a show breeder you will pay on average $1,500.00 for a puppy. When you buy from someone that has just randomly bred a female with a male because they wanted to or it happened by accident luck really dictates what you wind up with. In those circumstances it is not uncommon to get a yorkie that will not look like a show yorkie, it could have a curly corse coat, floppy ears, dark head etc. It's not like labs or golden retrievers where most of those dogs look sort of like the standard even when not bred for show. You paid around average for a pet quality yorkie, and she will no doubt be a wonderful pet. Please don't make yourself crazy trying to compare her to what you have seen in books, magazines or at dog shows or you will be unhappy, just enjoy her for the darling little puppy she is and enjoy and love the heck out of her. Also you will find here on YT there are many members here with dogs that do not meet "the standard" and I would venture to say some of them are the most loved and pampered dogs on the forum.

She looks all yorkie to me. Alot of yorkies ears are floppy, she is very young so they will probably stand up in the next few weeks

She looks like a yorkie to me. Did the breeder have any other dogs that she breeded? A long time ago I purchased what I thought was a full bred yorkie also. As he got a little older he did not look like the other yorkies I would see. His muzzle came out to far and his fur was wiry looking and feeling. I questioned her but she swore he was full yorkie, but she also bred chihuahuas too. I took him to my vet and after taking one look at him they said he was a yorkie and chihuahua mix. I loved him anyway, but it was upsetting to know that I was lied to. In the end one of my husbands friends had to take him because he was not good with the kids, I was having a new baby, and we tried everything to get him to stop snapping at the kids and we could not break him, but he loved my husbands friend and he did not have any kids, and was going through a divorce at the time. It turned out to be a good match because Samson was a good companion for him while he went through his divorce.

She sure looks Yorkie to me! What a doll!!!! :)

Looks Yorkie to me . But some times they all look different, and come in different sizes.:animal36

Purebred Yorkie
 

Sweetie, she looks like a purebred yorkie to me. They all tend to look different as puppies and I have had a lot of puppies born whose face was a
bit longer and then some have the short snub nose look. Her ears are not bad for 8 weeks. Massage her ears while you are holding her and playing with her. It tends to strengthen the little tendons and as a last resort you can tape them. She is a cutie.

I think it's much harder to tell as a puppy than it is as an adult. Adult yorkies can grow a long coat and so many mixes just can't grow a long coat. If your breeder didn't give you registration papers, the chances are that at least one of the breeding dogs was not registered. If they aren't registered, this means that they may look like a Yorkie, but not be a purebred. It doesn't make any difference if all you want is a pet, and I'm sure you'll love her no matter what, but please don't breed her.

Really? My friend has a coffee table registered with them as a great dane. You can register with them and don't even need paperwork. All you need is "pictures and witnesses".

Lol, can't wait till she registers the litter. :D

She did it to prove what a sham they are. ACA is the same way. Nonsense!!! Ironically. She named it "coffee table"

I have never owned a dog in my life. CKC is new to me,I just stated what we did to get a certificate. So you are saying most,or some dogs that r registered with CKC r not purebred ?

The only reputable registry in the United States for purebreds is the AKC, known as the American Kennel Club. There is a reputable Canadian Club, called the CKC, Canadian Kennel Club, however, there is a paper registry in the U.S. that took the same initials, and it stands for Continental Kennel Club. They will register anything. Read this for more information: Registries

Nancy1999,

Thanks for sharing with me. I had no knowledge about registries.My wife and I went to a breeder here looking for a yorkie and she said she was a purebred and she was registered with CKC,and we thought she must be purebred.We love Gabby even if she was not (:
