| ![]() they are very cute. but i agree....don't look "pure" to me. well, this is what maggie looked like at 12 weeks. she had what I would call a "full fluffy coat". i don't think her description in her ad is very accurate so that makes me question her all together. if you are def. wanting a pure yorkie...i would keep looking. if you fall for one of these pups and it doesn't matter what their lines might be...then go for it ![]()

| ![]() I think they are most likely purebred if she knows the weight of both parents. Maybe both parents are on site so you can see for yourself. I wouldn't say there is boston terrier in them and that sounds like the only option in that household. Boston terriers have that smashed-nose look going on which would be a very dominant gene. Go see them and ask questions, ask if there is any possibility she was bred to another dog. And let her know you don't trust paperwork. Either way, they are gorgeous...well worth a little house work. ![]()

| ![]() The boys have a stronger marking of a yorkie than the girls seem to have. IMHO they all look like a mix breed. Either that or there is some mix breeding in their linage. The best judge will be you. Look them over and if you have doubts that they are not what you want, say so. Don't let anyone presure you into taking a dog you don't won't! You could always tell her you would like a VET to check him before you make a commitment. A vet should know if they are mixed. Good luck.....let us know how things turn out. ![]() |

| ![]() Well they looked mixed to me but they are cute. A vet would not be able to tell you a definite yes or no as far as being mixed. Only a DNA test could do that. Does it matter if they are purebreed and do papers matter? I have to say, I think that their papers are probably worthless. The only thing that worries me is the type of breeder this person is. We have a problem with BYBs here. Do you have a phone number or name? PM me if you do, I might be able to tell you more.

| ![]() I was reminded of dashounds (spelling). You need to also remember that a litter can have more than one father. So even if she saw the two yorkies tie, there could be a tie she did not see. |

| ![]() They may be purebred and may not...CKC registration doesn't mean too much so far as being purebred. They'll pretty much register anything for money and a couple pictures. To me they look like badly-bred yorkies. They have very large ears and very long noses. They also look to have a coarse, wirey-like coat. You'll never have the long, flowing, silky coat with one of these puppies because it will be coarser and won't grow very quickly.
