| Is my yorkie a purebred? I have AKC papers for my yorkie and she was born last March which makes her approximately 9 months old. When she was a baby I had a pet groomer tell me that she was too dark to be a purebred and that she must be a yorkiepoo. I was very offended considering I paid 600 for her and she has papers. I never saw her mom and dad but saw her siblings. She's 2 pounds and is very tiny...., I'm curious to hear another opinion. Considering I thought yorkies could be many colors! I have provided a picture now! Thank you. |

| Looks like a Yorkie to me. I have seen yorkies that were even darker then yours. It's fun to see the difference from dog to dog. Mine is like pale gold with the rest being light grey(silver blue) |

| She is adorable and I believe 100% Yorkie. Some do have darker coats and faces, and I think she is beautiful.

| Welcome to YT, your puppy is beautiful, she looks 100% yorkie to me. My last girl's back was pure black, her legs and face were Auburn, not a speck of silver grey on her, I also had another puppy the same color. Her color may change as she gets older, but, you do have a beautiful little yorkie there.

| Your Yorkie baby is adorable. If the groomer does a good job grooming, perhaps you can just smile and nod at her perception of your precious baby's breed.

| How a yorkie looks like is not an indication whether its purebred or not. The only way to verify that a yorkie is purebred is it's pedigree. If a yorkie does not conform to the breed standard is just a matter of genetics and selection of the breeding pair. |
