It does not matter what anyone else says about your baby--fur or skin--you will love them anyway...RIGHT! Your little furbaby is adorable. I can't wait for you to "break out the camera" and start snapping!!!!! |
I'm so sorry your MIL was rude and insulted your baby! Maybe I should take Phoebi to visit her.....all 12 lbs. of her! I dare her to insult my baby...lol! |
I think she is ADORABLE!! People are rude and they will ALWAYS think they know way more than you will ever. You should hear some of the things that we hear....#1 question with our little Nadia that is from our breeding and we are keeping...she is almost 1 1/2 lbs at 18 weeks. When are you going to breed your teacup yorkie? We want one! Tsk tsk |
What do monster -in-laws know anyway!!! :bleh: He he he. I'm with you, my Memphis could weight 200 lbs and I would still love him just as much!! |
Susanah is beautiful and not big, how small do these little babies have to be before people quit saying stuff like that..:rolleyes: |
I think tiny yorkies are cute. I really do. I mean, how can you NOT think a little 2 lb dog is just adorable? However, I am very well aware of the health risks, etc and would be a nervous wreck is Susanah was that small. I was a nervous wreck with Annie-Belle and she was 4 pounds. Just like when I was in TX and she had a lady come in to purchase a yorkie puppy. She showed her the girls she had available and told her they would most likely only be about 3 pounds (she was letting the woman know this because the woman had another dog and a small child and the yorkie could easily be hurt by either one) and the woman looked at her and said, "Oh. I really wanted a teeny tiny one." :eek: 3 pounds IS teeny tiny!!!! |
awww, your baby is gorgeous! And I'm laughing at what constitutes BIG for some people. Send your MIL over to me. My boy weighs 14 pounds. Let's discuss BIG. Go ahead and tell me he's not a Yorkie. :D |
you know I get so sick and tired of people judging Yorkies by their size. Just because the AKA and ACA etc have deemed the perfect Yorkie to be no bigger than 7lbs or smaller than whatever. Banjo is 9 months and is 13lbs I dont care. Hes great. Robust, agile, fast, full of character, can jump up and off the bed etc etc. We love him the way he is. You have no idea how your dog is going to be when they grow up, size, colour, wether his ears stick up, how straight his back is etc etc. We were out at a park the other day and this lady said thats the biggest yorkie I've ever seen, are you sure hes not a silky:rolleyes: I said hes pure Yorkie, I should know and I prefer him this size and walked off, but I was annoyed at her attitude. Love them the way they are is what I say:) |
Gizmo is 9 1/2 weeks and 2.12 lb so he'll be about the same size I'm sure. I think he's perfect. And she is too. |
Shes beautiful....!!!!!! and dont let anyone tell you differently!!! They all go through that awkward stage.. and then become young adults and turn out beautiful. Shes a living doll already, she will be GORGEOUS when she grows up..:D |

Your little girl is ADORABLE and she looks tiny to me! She has such a kissable face! What a little sweetie pie. |
My baby is 6lbs even! I have always seen him as being so little! Lol. At my apartment complex there are some other yorkies and they are all much bigger than my lil man. They look like they could be 10-12 pounders. I have seen some smaller yorkies but they are the teacup yorkies. As for a normal standard yorkie...5-6lbs seems normal and is very small compared to most all other dogs! ;) |
I thought of this thread yesterday when my MIL came over to see Sugar for the first time. After she said how cute & well behaved Sugar was she said, "She's big for a Yorkie." (She saved herself by complimenting her first.) She has an aunt who had Yorkies many, many years ago so I'm not sure if she even remembers what size they were. Sugar is 10 pounds which is big for a Yorkie, but she's smaller than my cat so I think she's pretty stinkin' small. I laughed to myself when she said it because I remembered reading this thread. I adopted Sugar because I wanted a new member for our family, not as a show dog so I don't care how much she weighs. As long as I can pick her up and cuddle with her it doesn't matter one bit to me. I'm glad that I had read all of your comments though because I do have a tendancy to get defensive when someone says anything negative about someone I love. Because of all of you I was just able to say, "Oh, I think she's pretty small, Shadow (my cat) is bigger than her and she fits in the girls doll strollers." Ha! It felt good not to worry about what she thought. Thanks! |

Your baby really is beautiful! I'm having weight issues with Bobby too! He's only about 3 months old & he already weighs about 4lbs. I'm not an expert so I don't know if that's normal or not but I love him all the same. Oh & mother-in-laws just never know what to say, lol! |
