| New puppy mommy Hi. I'm a new puppy mom of Gigi. Long story short, I've always wanted a yorkie, but was waiting til the time was right. My 15 year old yellow lab passed away this summer so I've had my eye out for a puppy to adopt. Needless to say I was searching craigslist when a yorkie puppy popped up. I know she isn't pure bred. All I know is a girl was given the puppy for Christmas and didn't want her. She said she was 8 weeks old and thought dad was a poodle. I got Gigi home and weighed her. She is 32 oz, but has only two milk teeth in. She's eating wet food for me and going potty. Please help me! Yorkie? Yorkiepoo? Thoughts on age? She's very sweet, playful, silky soft but not fluffy. She looks about five weeks old fur wise but seems to be too heavy for that. Thank you! |

| Welcome to YT and congrats on your new baby. Please get this baby into your vet on Monday for a check up. Do you know if this puppy has had any shots yet. Your vet can better tell what age she is, a picture is just that "a picture" which is hard to tell anything by. I will say this tho, the puppy doesn't look like a poodle mix to me, I have had poodles, her eyes look more like a Chihuahuas. Either way she is a little cutie no doubt about that.

| Thank you! I will. I have an appt set. I agree with her eyes in the pictures. They don't look so big and popped out in real life. I'll try to get a better picture soon |

| Went to the vet today. She's About 5/6 weeks old. Too young for shots still, because we don't know when she weaned. She's all healthy and Yorkie maybe mixed with something. They'll be better able to tell when she's older |
