My Cody is 15# with big floppy ears. I love him just as if he were small.
This picture is hilarious because he wouldn't look at me. He kept turning his head or he'd look at me out of the corner of his eye and then turn away

OMG Cody is so cute, look at his big ears like my jada lol

One thing for sure is that all of our yorkies have the same eyes and face, that is how you can tell they are yorkies for sure...

Thank you so much. I will say when he was small I tried my hardest to get his ears to stand and nothing would work. It really bothered me. However he is so cute with them flopping.

Actually if he wants to he can hold up his ears, but they look like sattelite dishes

Do you love her? Has she won over your heart? Then I don't think it matters is her her hair is curly or straight, if her ears are up or down, and she's not as big as some of the yorkies on here. So don't worry about it. Just love her.

Your Jada looks like a sweetie pie! I don't think her coat is overly curly or wavy. And I think her floppy ears are adorable. Just love her to death and enjoy her!

Jada looks like a sweetie. If she is AKC and you feel something is wrong you can go to the AKC site & file a complaint so they can investigate. There is plenty of info on here to help determine how big a yorkie will be at adult weight & when the ears should be up, etc. There are yorkies of all shapes, size & colors on here. So you will fit in fine. Even though I think we all agree that if someone is breeding they should be at the least making sure that the dog in within standards, but thats not always what people are concerned with$. We all cant afford show quality & even though we may love our yorkie like a child the responsible thing to do would be at least to contact the breeders & let them know that a pup from that litter has alot of characteristics not consistant to the breed, if they seem unconcerned find the business on yahoo local & leave a comment on it & if the dog is AKC I would report to them also maybe even the BBB since they have a store front. But anyways your yorkie is a cutie, Welcome to YT

Gosh, she is so ADORABLE! Personally, I love larger yorkies and the floppy ears make them look like a puppy forever

Your girl seems to be a larger yorkie. She could have some other mix in her but she looks pure yorkie to me

I live in Brooklyn and havent heard one good thing about puppy boutique or honestly any other store here that sells puppies. I bought mine before i found this site and would never get one from a store again. Try to find a breeder so you could see the parents and know they came from a clean home. My baby had many problems when i got her and it cost me an obscene amount of money to get her healthy but i couldnt bare to return her.
There are many breeders in this area and I will be searching on YT when i am getting a puppy later this year.
Good Luck

I would have her thyroid checked for the hair loss, also it could be "leather ear" or "winter ear" lotrimin will clear this up if that is what it is. Is she in a cool temperature a lot?

My vet told me the same thing about my first yorkie. But I tried the lotrimin and his hair grew back!

Njsweetface75 · 02-28-2007, 12:31 PM

lotrimin, isnt that over the counter medicine for people? I dont want to buy the wrong thing..lol Its not like her hair was falling out, i took her to get groomed and they shaved her down and her hair never grew back on her ears.

Punkin&Piper · 02-28-2007, 01:02 PM

She is a doll! I never have my babies ears tipped which I hear will make them stand but I think they are adorable with floppy ears. A yorkie could never be ugly!!

Yes, I used the clear liquid stuff for athlete's foot. Just massaged it into his ears front and back twice a day for about a month or so. He was also missing hair on his nose so did that too and it grew back.

Yea that is what happend with Jada, she is missing hair on her nose too, both ears and her nose..I will try that, sounds good...THank you

JiggityJig · 02-28-2007, 01:55 PM

I doubt she's a mix...just a poorly bred yorkie.

That said....she is a CUTE and sweet looking girl! Welcome, and you are not by far the only one here who made a mistake buying from the wrong place the first time. I'm glad you LOVE your current baby, but have learned that lesson!

I am glad to hear that because she is not only very cute but I bet she is just a wonderful little girl. No matter what the size, shape, or hair style they are all just too precious! I adore them all.
