Yersterday , I was talking to Gazou's breeder and she told that she have been very surprise that I let him chose me and buy him . She told me that peoples are searching for more for females than males .

Is there a reason peoples ask more for females ?

I have Gazou and I am very happy with him .

I love my male :) I don't know why people would rather have females, but I think it would be fun to dress girls up in dresses and bows as I don't put them on my male.

I can't explain why people prefer females. I guess they think they are less aggressive or more loving My sil has a female lab and that dog will eat you alive if she thinks you are harming her mom. I can tell you after owning, or being owned by cats, the males are much more loving than any of my females ever were. Intially, we wanted a female yorkie, but Trace really stole our hearts. Baby boy yorkies unite :D

Trace says he doesn't want to be a cross dresser either ;) No bows, no dresses, and no hot pink toenails :animal-sm

Bentley says "don't knock it til you've tried it" :D LOL!!!! I think just females in general think it's more fun to "dress up" a girl yorkie. Even with children, and I have two boys, it's hard to fine the cutsey stuff for boys. But if you look hard enough, you can find it cause it's out there. I have had more interest in my girl pups than my boys. You have to have both to appreciate the wonderful differences!!! :) I wouldn't trade either for ANYTHING!!! :)

ROTFL. My daughter will love to hear that cause she's the one that wants him to have the hot pink toenails. Btw, I'm not knocking anyone who foos foos their boys. Personally, Trace wants that sweatshirt that says, "i hate cats".

Bentley&BitsysMom 05-09-2005 07:46 AM
LOL! I haven't colored the toenails yet but I am not ruling that out:) I just bought Bentley a shirt that says, STUD. It's baby blue, which I LOVE, and he wears it proudly! :)

I think one of the main reasons that someone would want a female instead of male is the humping issue what they dont relize is that females do it also :D my female (spayed) is forever trying to hump my poor cat lol

Maximus just got 2 new shirts, one is black and says, "I love my Human" and the other is blue, white and green Argyle. They are way cute! I like the argyle the best! I love to dress him up in "old Man" style clothes!

I have had male dogs most of my life and I love them! My family choses our dogs based on personality and it may be just a coincidence, but the males are usually the ones that steal our hearts!

PS- I was very close to getting a female yorkie I had a really hard time choosing cause Max and his sister were sooo cute and loving!

StewiesMom 05-09-2005 07:59 AM
Stewie wears boys clothes. He has
2 White Sox shirts
a black shirt w/ a red skull on the back (its cute)
a Chicago Bulls shirt
a Red polo w/ yellow collar
a green & orange sweater
a shirt that says "bitches love me"
a shirt w/ his name and paw print on the back
a University of Illinois tee
a tee shirt that says "I <3 Mom!" on the back that he wore yesterday.
and probably 10 more that I can't remember right now.

I like shopping for boys clothes better -- and that goes for human baby boys, too.

Bentley&BitsysMom 05-09-2005 08:07 AM
Stewie is a definite example of hip fashion for boys :)

klogan 05-09-2005 08:20 AM
I've heard the same thing. Females typically cost more than males too. I think it is because the money you can potentially make off of them if you decide to breed. I also selected a male and was told them same thing...

Thank you for all the answers . It was really funny for me to hear from the breeder that she have been surprised that I chose a boy instead of a girl .
I chose the one who came to me , placed him with the other , he came back to me .

I've spoken to quite a few people about yorkie puppies. Everyone I've talked to has said that male yorkies are more affectionate, and that females can have more attitude. I was also told that females bond better with a male human and male dogs bond better with females. I'm not sure if this is true, but I decided on a male puppy after speaking with many yorkie owners.

The clothes issue is the only thing I like better about females- so many more options!! Although, there are some really cute polo shirts and sweatshirts out there for boys!

rrosenberry 05-09-2005 10:05 AM
When I was trying to decide whether to get a male or female.. EVERYONE.. said DONT GET A MALE.... and there #1 and only real reason was because to the Marking.... which I was SOOO afraid of ... but finally found pups but only had 2 males!!! I didnt know what to do,,,, BUt guess what I did... I took HIM home.... :eek: ... and yes he did mark twice, only at other peoples houses,,(that had dogs) and then he got fixed and he has not done it since!! :D
So Im so glad I got him... and did not listen to everyone...
But, my neighbor had an Unneutered,,, 5 year old male,,, and he marks constantly!! SO thats one reason....

rene 05-09-2005 10:09 AM
good point about the marking i forgot about that lol i have a boy and a girl my little girl will not let me do anything to her hair :( i bought some really cute little barrets but she hates them i do put sweaters on them and they dont mind that. I just bought a shirt for sebastain and it just came in this weekend they get groomed then he can wear his shirt and lots of photos lol

Lol, thats so cute!

I agree with the others, I think the idea of dressing girls up in pink appeals to lots of people. I have both a boy and a girl, they are both lots of fun, but my boy is so much more afectionate. He will lay on my lap like a baby all day long if I let him while my girl is running around the house like a party animal lol.

I agree! I just bought a couple of new shirts for Hefner and I love the one that says "Tougher than I look!" He also has "SECURITY". I do put his hair up but he looks cute that way and people know he's a bow because of his clothes!! He's a metrosexual and very in touch with his feminine side!

I thought I would want to dress my little girl more, but my daughter (the female is hers) hates pink and I have only bought her one dress so far and it is a functional harness dress. It's real cute though!

Duke's mom 05-09-2005 12:11 PM
I dress Duke up all of the time, and he loves it! He has a variety of Hawaiian shirts, polo's, vests, sweaters, sweatshirts and jammies.

I think that I have more fun shopping for clothes for Duke, than I do shopping for myself! :p

That is not always the case....Kai does not want ANYTHING to do with Daddy 99% of the time..and EVERYTHING to do with mommy , I cannot EVER get away from her!!! (and when I do of course I miss her!!!) My parents have a male who is more attached to my dad then my mom. I think it depends on who they choose as their human , and who spents the most time with them :D I choose a female B/C both of my sets of parents have males who are fixed and MARK EVERYWHERE!!

DinerosMom 05-09-2005 02:39 PM
Clothes
 
Dinero was 7 mos old yesterday. How would he do with clothes now? Would he wear them do you think?

whispersmom2 05-09-2005 03:26 PM
I think that years ago when males were neither trained or neutered they were problems...marking and humping. That is not the case now--I can sell my males more quickly than my females. WHY? Cause I am a sincere lover of my boys. They bond better with their moms, they are needy and they don't have PMS. LOL I do not dress up any of my dogs-but that is another issue-- so that definitely is not an issue with me. Yorkie boys cannot be beat as pets.. Given the choice between the two, da boys get my vote!!!

sfmadrigal 05-10-2005 12:11 AM
I'll admit it. I wanted females because I wanted to put bows in their hair and dress them up and paint their toenails. All of which I do. It had nothing to do with marking or humping.
