My last girl was a big girl, at 8 weeks old she was bigger then my 6 y/o yorkie, she had huge ears, just a beautiful puppy. As an adult he weighed 17 lbs. Lots of ppl thought she was a silky because of her size, my vet even said she looked like a silky, her AKC paper read yorkie, color Blue. She had a long snout, but I chalked that off to her size, big dog, longer snout. She had pure black hair on her body, face and legs was a light auburn, she never turned silver. I also had another yorkie, smaller, weighed 10 lbs,color was the same but her face and legs was a deep auburn she also never turned silver. My last girl had to be put down at age 17 y/o, in those 17 years I never saw a yorkie as big as her, since joining YT I see many members have large yorkies. My last girl (Matese) had all yorkie characteristics, so the size of your yorkie does not determine the breed. Your baby looks like a yorkie to me, but a picture is just that,a picture which is hard to tell by, besides, I am not an expert on telling apart a yorkie from a silky. I went by what her AKC papers stated. She was a smart, intelligent lil girl that I miss soooo much. |
