Is this a Yorkie?
 

Yest. there was an ad in the Sunday paper and I was looking at Yorkies. There was an AKC Yorkie male, 7 mos., tiny. So I call on him. The lady says he is real small, 3 lbs. but that's only a guess. She bought him for her teenage daughter who now could careless. He's completely housetrained. I asked about hair coat, color, length of body, etc. and the lady acted just clueless. To make a long story short, she lived in the same town as I, only about 10 minutes away so my curiosity was killing me. I drove over to see him. I also brought my Bijou with so I could be a better judge of size since I don't have a scale. Bijou weighs 2 lbs. 13 oz. (vet's age is 6 1/2 mos., puppymill papers 8 1/2 mos.). This little guy was I am guessing 5-6 lbs. Long cottony coat that looked silver. Shorter hair on his head but this lady says she has had him to the groomers to manage his ever growing hair. There my Bijou was looking more like a "I don't know what". The lady even asked if Bijou was a mix. That is what my husband is always telling me "that isn't a purebred Yorkie, she is mixed with something". I tried to take a better picture to show more of her body. Will try tomm. in daylight to get a side shot. She just didn't look nothing like this 7 mos. male. She seems to have a Yorkie face but then that short cropped hair on her body make you go hmmmmmmm. She does seem to have long legs to. She is quite the jumper. She can now jump on the couch.

Is she chocolate? She is such a doll!!

Yorkies come in many sizes and coat colors/consistency. Not all are standard, but that doesn't make them any less Yorike:) Your Bijou is just that, a jewel! From what I can see, she looks like a Yorkie to me!

it looks like a yorkie to me but i can't tell since it's kinda blurry....did you end up getting it ?? :confused:

looks like a little yorkie baby to me too.

She looks like a yorkie to me also.

if you didn't get him can i get him ?? you can give me the breeders info and i'll come get him !! ;)

im no expert But looks all Yorkie to me :) what a cutie pie !

Awww! She's beautiful! She deffinetly looks like a Yorkie to me. I wouldn't worry about it. The vet told my mom that her Jack Russell looks like a mix but he has papers and we saw the parents. The woman raised Jack Russells for a living. Somtimes vets don't know what they are talking about.

Looks like a yorkie to me! Yorkies come in all different shapes and sizes, but she definetly has a yorkie face to me.

Yup...looks like a yorkie to me too! A better picture would help, but this one shows she is ... yorkie! The person who had the boy doesn't sound very informed or informative? Maybe THAT was not a yorkie? LOL!

I'm seeing yorkie too!

Looks like one to me - A cutie as well!!

looks like a yorkie and a cute one too

looks like a very cute yorkie to me :)

Thanks for the replies. I love my little Bijou and she has a her home forever now with us. I didn't get that little boy. But I would love to have another Yorkie. I just want to take my time and find the perfect one. I obviously rushed to buy Bijou because the excitement got the better of me. I don't want to make that mistake again. Because then my heart grabs a hold and then I am stuck. LOL
I am off to the dentist for some whopping fun root canals. Whooopeeeee!!! But when I get home I will try and take some better pictures of her, especially a side shot that shows her very short hair and longer body, with long legs.

She looks like a yorkie to me also. I have 5 yorkies and they all look different! My male, Sydney, has very long legs and he can jump up so high, I am afraid one day he will get hurt. Anyway, your little dog is very cute!

*wow* that sounds nice root canals !! its better you than me right ?? j/k :D keep us posted hun !!

She looks like a yorkie to me. A very cute one in fact.

I'm confused, you keep saying She-but then 7month old male? Is it a girl or boy? lol. I was going to say looks like you got it because looks like you are holding it. It could be a mix & if papers arent matching up to age, color etc-I would report it to where ever they register so it can be looked into. Some Non-reputable breeders will put papers on another dog to get more $$. Example-They have a 8 month old pup they bought as breeding stock, it becomes ill or gets hurt & must be PTS. Do you think they want to destoy those papers , they should destroy them but hmm I have this 6month old pup I could put them on & make more $$. Its just one senerio that I believe has been tried many times & because it goes unreported nothing gets done. I'm a tattle tell,lol. But if it keeps others from getting ripped off... It doesnt mean you cant keep & love the pup, but you still want to see the person clean up there act. jmo

pic is blurry, but she looks yorkie to me.

I think OP went to see another yorkie boy for sale, and seeing him made her question whether or not her own yorkie girl is indeed a purebred yorkie--who is an absolute doll BTW!! :)

Ohhh :rolleyes:
