Just a little "venting"

[littlewhip]

I think roxie is so cute, may i ask about her cut, i think its adorable i would love it on karleigh, she is also 4lbs and to me that is small, im just thankful all my babies are health and size wise....SO WHAT!!!!!!! people are so ignorant at times

[nvnvgirl]

OMG, Roxee is ADORABLE!!! And she looks like nothing OTHER than a Yorkie! And anyone who's got a Yorkie would recognize that, for heaven's sake . Not only that, she's not BIG....My Max is between 5 and 6 lbs (and everyone says he's SMALL)...depending on whether we're exercising or not, LOL. AND he's a LOT darker than Roxee is.....anyone who knows anything about Yorkies knows that there's a big color variation and they're all different. Some are just more "blue", some have more black and tan, some are more blonde.....and some people are just annoying, LOL! I hope whatever was wrong with your baby is all better now; she's a real beauty!

I think the first clue was that she owns a yorkie but had to ask you what kind of dog you had.....here's your sign.

Wonder what she woulda said about my 9lb Alphy? LOL

Oh my...that was too funny!!! Thank you all for your compliments and reassurance that some people are just full of nerves!! I can not believe that she along with others would ask to breed our dogs. Some people just want money, I guess! When Roxee picked me when I got her, she was not the smallest...actually she was one of the biggest. I didn't care about size. I think all yorkies are adorable, if they are 1 lb or 50 lbs. Thanks again for all of your ears!!

Roxee is feeling fine. She was spayed on the 7th of June and yesterday morning she had blood in her urine. It was a small urinary tract infection. They did an ultrasound and urinalysis (sp???) and there are no stones, just a little infection. She is taking antibiotics and is as good as new!!!

Thanks guys!!

Oh...I meant to add that I have Max cut in a sort of Puppy cut/ Westie cut/ which sort of looks like how Roxee is clipped too...only I have them shave Max's body and belly so he's really smooth and silky(partially b/c it's so HOT here, and partially b/c he loves to get into the water and then the sand ).....I've occasionally looked at him and thought he sort of resembles a mini schnauzer.....I think it's just the cut that sometimes makes people think that's what they might be, if they're not really knowledgeable about different breeds. I think a lot of people think of the long flowing tresses as what they'd expect a Yorkie to look like.


I had to laugh about the lady who kept commenting on the other girl's Yorkie looking like a Schnauzer b/c she's got poodles and thinks they're superior ....I think they're all cute, but I'm SO HAPPY to have a Yorkie

I get Roxee cut pretty short for the summer time. We go camping a lot and she doesn't miss a trip!!!! They leave her face in a teddy bear shape... and the hair on middle of her back is about 1-2 inches long. Then they layer the rest. She is so comfortable. She has more of a cottony/silk coat and does get quite matted while camping. Roxee hates to be brushed--she lets me, but does not like it. I will let her grow longer during the fall and winter.

This last time I took her to the groomers, the new girl gapped up her top knot, so it has been staying up until it grows.

Hope this helps!!!

Forget that lady. Roxee is beautiful and definitely looks all yorkie! She has beautiful color!

I taught for many years, and one very wise man once told me to never underestimate the power of stupidity to dirive people's actions and comments.
My little Lolly weighs 5.75lbs., and my darling departed Mac weighed 7lbs. Next time somebody makes a mating comment, tell them your dog isn't a tramp and doesn't even kiss until the 3rd date. If you see the woman with the 2.9lb. yorkie again, tell her you thought about it, but her little boy isn't man enough for your girl. I pity that poor dog having a nitwit for an owner.

She is not big and that silly person just wanted to make herself feel better. Pay not attention and only someone who is rude would think they have the right to even comment. Think of what she says about human babies?

That is so funny! Very witty! Okay, now I have seen teapot and now teahouse used to describe Yorkies. What is the difference?

[chattiesmom]

Sista Thea -- Roxie is absolutely PERFECT! She looks like the picture of health -- even WITH a uti....

It sounds like this person was one of those unhappy sorts who "build themselves by putting others down." I am sorry for her that she is such an unhappy person. Shame on her for being unkind.

i get that all the time with my baby that he is a chunk, he is 4.6 lbs, as well as his ears are bigger than he is! but i still love him all the same!!!!! Your little girl is gorgeous! she is very photogenic i love it!

When I was out with Davie one day last week, a woman with a bigger dig, maybe a bull dog?, asked me how much I paid for my dog. No hi, nice day, nothing....just how much did you pay for your dog? I was taken back, and I said "Not enough!"

On the size.....I have 3 Yorkies...Harley is 4.5, Davie is about 4, and Lexie is 6 pounds when not pregnant. Right now she is a waddling 9 pound, with 5-6 puppies healthy and growing inside her. I raise healthy Yorkies, and that does not mean that they are under 5 pounds. Not everyone wants or should have those tiny Yorkies, some of us love them just a little bigger! I love my babies, if you can not tell.
