Anyone breeding larger yorkies? My mother had a yorkie she got when we were living in England about 20 years ago. Maggie weighed about 10 - 12 pounds. Now that Dad has retired, she would like to get another. I know that it is the trend now for yorkies to be as tiny as possible, but is anyone breeding larger yorkies? She lives in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area of Texas, but please let me know if you know of anyone in the US producing larger yorkies. Thanks! |
its funny you ask that, because one of the things i was looking for when i was searching for a yorkie was one that would be LARGER than the standard. And, wouldnt you know it? i found NO BREEDERS that had yorkies this size, the one i have now is larger, he is 9 lbs (probably going to be 10 lbs full grown) but i got lucky, the breeder told me he was going to be 6 lbs..... it was a little funny looking back, because some of the yorkies i looked at would have been bigger than standard but the breeders still insisted they were smaller (even after i informed them i wanted a larger yorkie). . . i dont think i could ever get a teeny |
Well,I certainly wish you luck because as you said,breeders are now going for hampster sized yorkies..lol.I like the bigger ones too and Im speaking through experience because I have both kinds.There must be a breeder out there that has these cuddly babies..I hope you find one:) |
I had large boys and I just sold the last one yesterday they would be bigger then standard 9-10 lb est.. The girls were much smaller. I do have another female who may throw bigger yorkies but she isnt pregnant. I have no litters coming right now, the earliest would be fall. I may have been able to help ya out! Good luck on your search. |
Bigger yorkie I have a male available that is only 7 weeks old that is already a porker! I'm sure he will be a big boy! His mama is 9 lbs and his dad is about 8 lbs. I don't have a digital camera or I would post a picture. I don't breed tiny yorkies - I feel they have too many health problems and I am no into breeding unhealthy dogs. Let me know if you are interested and I could send you some pictures. |
I know a lady in Oklahoma that has some bigger ones ready to go in May if you wanna pm me I will give you details. |
