Why ist everyone so picky? 2 Attachment(s) When we were looking to purchase a yorkie we looked for a few things. One that would be bigger and still meat the standards. We have a big dog (german shepherd mix) and also we are looking at breading. Addie has a grand champion grandfather and her fathers has also won a number of showing awards (just not enough for champion yet). I personally think she resembles the breed beautifully and her breeder even said she has great coloring. But why all these comments from EVERYONE and their mother? We get comments all the time that she is big, that why didn't we get a teacup yorkie, that smaller is better. Someone told us she just HAD to be a silky because all yorkies are small (like 4 lbs). I have even avoided going to our local yorkie group because one woman insisted on referring to her as a tank (her yorkie was under 3lbs). What do you think? I'm not sure on her weight right now, but her parents were both 5 and 6 lbs and the vet said she should get 6lbs. I know size small clothing is too big and the Xs fits, but is just a little too snug to be comfy and she is 8 months old. here are some recent pics |
Well, I think she's gorgeous and I say screw anyone who doesn't! :D |
I think she is BEAUTIFUL!! Most people whom believe smaller is better are just uneducated! The smaller the dog, the more likely it is to have health problems (not that all small yorkies have health problems) and more likely to get stepped on! |

and as far as someone telling you you should have got a teacup ....that's plain ignorant -you should have told them if they knew anything about this breed.... they'd know there is NO teacup yorkie. |

The rude comments are made by ignorant people or it's a way for them to get your attention so they can admire and pet your baby. Let's just call it a Yorkie Pick-up Line! If you feel you need to say anything to them just tell them she is well within the AKC standard which is 7 pound or less and start telling them how smart and sweet your little pumpkin is! I have a 9 pounder - And I am so proud of her and love to show her off! I get comments about her size all the time and I just smile and say "lucky me! I have more to Love"! |
I'm being 100 percent honest here...she is one of the prettiest yorkies I've seen. I love her face and coloring, and guess what? She looks 100% yorkie to me. If that woman would have called my yorkie a tank, she would have been hurtin for certain. That is so disrespectful!!! I think you need to go back there and tell them that, you know what? The STANDARD is up to 7 lbs, and tell them they don't have a clue what they're talking about and there is no such thing as a teacup. What ignorant people! Just enjoy your yorkie and leave them to their "teacup" business...grrr... |
Don't listen to those idiots! The standard says a Yorkshire Terrier is 7lbs and under. I doubt you'll find someone showing a 3lb yorkie. Aren't the show ones normally 5-7lbs? My Lacy is 7lbs and she's larger than some I see at work (looks big compared to my boss's 3lb and 3.8lb yorkies) but you should see some of the oversized ones that come in. Your baby is beautiful too by the way. |
Those people are just rude :thumbdown Your little girl is just beautiful!! I love her face...........;) PRECIOUS :) |
She is adorable !!! I would care less what people think with a beauty like that!!!!:) |
She is absolutly beautiful:) |
Seth is 8lbs and Sasha is 6.5lbs I would love them if they were 40 lbs. I agree with screw them attitude Addy is beautiful, the little ones, the big ones, they are all our babies and they are gorgeous. :aimeeyork :D :aimeeyork |
she is gorgeous! Some people should learn to keep their comments to themselves........ |
A TANK!!?? Oh no...she did NOT just say that! Girlfriend...I would have said some SERIOUSLY rude things to that ....person. OMG! She is absolutely beautiful! |
She is beautiful. I have a 10 pounder and think he is the cutest thing on four legs!!! Ignore those people. |
JeAlOuSy!! All I can say i anyone who says she is anything other than gorgeous is WaCk!!! SHe has the sweetest little face, and SO FRIGGIN WHAT if she isnt what they consider standard.....Do they even know what standard is?? Obviously not...I mean they think a teacup is even a dog??? Thats nothing but a poorly bred dog, with a high risk of health issues, and purchaed for vain reasons (unless your trying to save it) You just keep loving your dog and if they dont wanna see her WHO CARES all I can hope for is you keep posting pic of her for us to look at!!!!:D :D :D :p :p :p Oh and Diggy says she is a hottie! :aimeeyork |
