| Any Yorkies larger then 18 lbs? I have a 1 year old Yorkie, Bronco, who is 18 lbs. He is a purebred Yorkie (have the papers as proof.) He is not overweight at all - he is just very tall and long and muscular. Wanted to start this thread to see if anyone out there has a dog who is comparable. I attached a couple recent photos with Bronco next to objects so you can see his size. Love him regardless!! |

| Love that shot of Bronco standing up on the fence. He must be crazy fun to play outside with. Nothing more fun than an athletic yorkie.

| He's very handsome! There's really a lot of pups that are long, tall, and muscular. Check out the threads for the Teapot club. You'll find the others there.

| I have two sixteen pounders. I never knew they got that big, my others were in the 6-8 lb range. Then I got Jezebel! When she needed a playmate I found out about Chuy. He was the same size and age (1 year), and I knew he would be a great fit for our pack.

| Monty is the same weight and seems to be the same build as Bronco! I love that there is another that is the same body shape!! You can read my posts that are constantly talking about Monty's size but he is all yorkie as well, from his attitude right down to his behavior. I absolutely love his size! |

| oh, also, my Vet has recommended agility training for Monty and it looks like Bronco fits the bill as well. Apparently with their longer bodies they are extremely athletic and built for something like agility or fly ball |

We took Bronco to a puppy preschool class and the instructor told us the next class we should put him in was Puppy Agility. I thought he was crazy but it's probably what we should do. | |

| Bronco! He's a giant beauty! Love those big, strapping guys! With an army of those big guys, you could rule the world! Love that name for him - it's fitting! Do you have one of just his handsome face up very close? I'd love to see that!
