I HAVE to say something here!!! I am one of those crazy old lady breeders that does NOT sell to families with children under 6 years of age and will save the larger babies in my litters for the families with older children. I had one little lady that has taken the blue ribbon for a young girl owner...she was 12 years old, and I had interviewed her father. Set up a meeting with him and his daughter......the pup was for his daughter. They arrived, and that little lady sat down with a notebook with questions she had compiled to ask ME! She had been researching Yorkies for almost a year and she felt she was now prepared to go forward with her selection! She and I talked at length and answered each other questions, and when we both were satisfied with each other, (actually she had me when she walked in with her sequened Yorkie T-shirt and notebook) I had two males that were on the large end of standard size, just perfect for this well informed little girl. I brought the puppy out and handed him to her.....her eyes absolutely lit up and a warm smile fell across her lips. Her daddy asked her how she felt about him, and she calmy, softly said, OOOHHHHH Daddy! I LOVE HIM!!!..Two weeks later they came back to pick their baby up, and these two have become inseparable! Wonderful, wonderful home for a special, precious 8# baby boy! And that precious little girl!!! One in a million!!!

7.6 lbs. and only 8 mos. That's "TeaPot" territory.:D Submit an app for memebership.

Already there.

When we got our first Yorkie I was so uninformed. I had no idea what size a yorkie was suppose to be. (Had just gotten a computer and barely knew how to use it). He ended up being 4.5 lbs, so when my dh picked out Kyra for us he asked for one that the breeder thought would stay around that size. Not because we wouldn't of loved a yorkie at any size but because we felt Laddy needed a playmate close in his size. I totally disagree with breeders that breed for tiny's but it does seem like there is a runt in most litters that needs special love too.
