| I don't know if that's a purebred Yorkie, but he doesn't look happy. I think that your friend should go meet him and see if she falls in love. You can't really tell from pictures what relationship she'll have with the little guy. I think she should give him a shot. He looks like he needs some lovin'! |

| to me, kinda looks like half silky/half yorkie. cause ginger looked like that at first too, and sometimes i still ponder if she is really purebred.. but i love her to death regardless. |

| Personally, I would not buy this animal as a purebred anything. And, $600.00 is a lot to pay for a dog that might be a mixed breed. Also, that is a lot to pay for a rescue. Having said that, I would (and have) pay that amount and more for a dog that needed a home. And, I could look at that pup and tell he was not purebred although he was reg. with ConKC. I also cannot believe the breeder will not just have him neutered and place him for the costs of vets bills. I hope that either you or someone else rescues that poor little boy... |

| I've never seen a Yorkie with white fur on the head or if any, it shouldn't be all white |

| The poor little guy. Maybe $600 doesn't sound like a lot for a pet quality "maybe Yorkie", but if this lady wasn't a consciensous (sp?) breeder, does she watch her line for luxating patella, liver shunt, or any other costly defects? Luxating patella's can run into thousands of dollars in surgeries. Ask me I know! In the long run it's not such a bargain. As for me? I would pass. You can find other yorkies for a reasonable price that look more like Yorkies. JMO

| His snout is longer than I've ever seen. Could he possibly be a silky? I got Fred for $400 and I'm from Texas. I'm sure she could get a better deal but after coming across this little sad lookin' guy.. personally if it were me, I'd take him so they don't neglect him since she says she has no use for him since he's not interested in her girly. |

| I do think it looks like a yorkie. I think the hair on his head looks silver. He may not have the best lines but he does look like a yorkie to me. He sure does need a home though. I bet he would be so thankful and loving to his new mommy. Is your friend going to take him?

| I don't have much experience with Yorkies but I used to think Yorkies and Silkies were the same breed just that Yorkies were black and tan and Silkies were the lighter colored ones. It wasn't until I did a little research that I found out that Silkies have the longer snouts, shorter coats and were supposed to be bigger. Then I said OOOOOhhhh, nnnnnooooo, I want a Yorkie, and nothing but!!! Now I have run into someone who has Silkies and they look like light colored Yorkies. Small, 3 and 5#, short snouts and the long coats!!!!! I have to say I don't think this little guy is purebred. He could be a throw back, I suppose, but that nose and those ears!!!! Villette, doesn't he look like Bradley on YF&F? Just his face? Sylvia |

| My yorkie is 12 pounds, has silver in his hair, tail isn't docked, and his ears hang down.. BUT I love him more than anything. Sometimes its the little imperfections that make them all the more beautiful. Chloe has a lot of silver on her head too. Chances are even if hes not full blooded, once your friend has him for a little while.. shes going to fall in love anyway. we'd pay double what we paid for our yorkie now if someone else had her because we love her so much. |
