Hi Megan,
This was an absolutely excellent video. My Husband and I are the proud owners of two yorkies 5 and 3
Rosie and Ruby.
I have grown up with yorkies from the age of 8 and now that I’m 44 I could never imagine being without this breed. Our previous girls Ria and Bess were 18 and 15 and we lost them 6mths apart which was the most devastating experience ever for us. People should really research the breed before taking on this wonderful commitment. Give each of yours a big kiss from us. Sending love to you all from across the pond in Bedford England xx

Thank you for sharing such priceless info!! I know and in contact with the pups ( they’re now 2 years old), owners. The smallest one weighs 3.5 lbs. she also works at a counseling center!! She always wears a bell also, she’s so tiny & mighty! The one I kept, she weighs 4.4 lbs. the male is the biggest 5. Lbs. the other weighs 4. So they all do vary in the same litter. There’s no way I’d sell them to just anyone without knowing a lot of info in the pups long term care. Also, if the pups ever have a health change, we always connect about it, some challenges can pass down to any litter of dogs as well. Thank you again!! Your dogs are so stinkin adorable!! Your one I’d trust!

[heartsawah]

Truly such important information to know about yorkies! The squad is just so adorable, I could watch their headtilts all day long ❤

[debbierogers]

Megan, I just found your videos last night and I can’t tell you how much I’m enjoying them! I currently have a Toy Poodle but I am on a waiting list for a Female Yorkie. I can’t believe how many horrible people there are out there trying to scam people! I’ve had 4 try to scam me. Very sad! Thanks for all of your great information. You might want to bring up on a video to beware of scams.

I been wanting a Yorkie for years and doing my research before I purchase one. Thanks for sharing info!

[Casstorento]

I am so sad I thought I found someone legit on akc but she refused to let me meet puppy and said she never allows meeting until you take puppy home and pay her. She was so offended at me questioning her and basically told me she doesn’t want a customer like me who will cause problems down the road. I know this is a blessing and I’m thankful I found you and have learned so much. I also found out the puppy’s mom is 9 which I’ve been told is too old to have puppies 😢

I get my baby on Saturday. I’m soo excited🥰. I hope she blends well with my parents dog she’s a shih-poo.

Thank you Megan. I appreciate you sharing your video and time. I wanted to steer away from the teacup branding, too. I lost a full-size yorkie recently and wanted to keep her toys and outfits. So I got a 6 week old baby female Yorkie; but I bought the largest of the litter because I might consider her for breeding. She is CKC purebred.

[josueluis]

Great Info and I can totally relate. I have 2 yorkies. One 3lbs and the other 4lbs. They are amazing dogs, for people who can tend to their needs. Your dogs are adorable.

My baby is 3.2 lbs and is now 12 years old. She just went to two vets (I wanted to confirm what the first vet said), and she is very healthy! My only issue with her is that I got her from a breeder that kept her for 2 years because she was hoping she would get large enough to show, but she never did. Due to her being raised for 2 years to be a show dog she never really was much of a playful dog. She's very timid and doesn't like to be handled much. I guess this is also a blessing because she is so very tiny that I absolutely hate when anyone tries to pick her up anyway. Well, I just wanted to say hi, and that I agree that you do not need to break the bank to get a quality yorkie, as I have paid high prices before but my 12 year old was not a high price. The breeder simply wanted a good home for her. I actually don't know how I have kept this tiny little thing safe and happy for so long. I guess my over protective stance has worked out for her! LOL Have a great day!

I missed my 9 year old Yorkie so much. She’s in the Philippines. I cant bring her when I migrated in the U.S. I love your videos I hope I could find a yorkie in the future when I am ready.

[sissy]

I have a small size Yorkie. My son and his wife liked him so much we bought them one from the next litter. She turned out to have a severe heart murmur. The man he works for has several ranches and uses one of the best vets. His vet recommended a vet that specialize in heart surgeries. He did the surgery and she had such a great recovery you can not tell she ever had heart surgery. She was so tiny the vet made a video of the surgery and did a paper on her as the smallest dog to have heart surgery.

I am a yorkie owner and my 1st puppy i got was a very small male and he only weighs 3.5 pounds and he is now 5 years old. Thank God, i haven't had any issues with him medically. It is very true that if you do get a small yorkie please be cautious of them because they love to follow you around and will get under your feet.. I just got my 2nd Baby Girl Yorkie and she is going to be a little bit bigger than my male yorkie..she weighs 3 pounds and is only 3 months old.. so you really don't know what your going to get...the breeder i got her from said she should be about 5 pounds.. i'm thinking she may weight a little more because of the way she likes to eat..lol.. it's amazing how they are so different from each other...my male has always been more calmer and my baby girl is so full of energy and wants to chew on everything, which i hope she grows out of...i'm working with her on that now..If yall have any advise on that for me with my female please feel free to let me know or if you have any questions about my male.. Thanks..

Getting my yorkie boy in 10 days! So excited.

[charlessmith]

Very nice heartfelt, sincere, and practical advice.

[RootlessWanderer]

I get this teacup question ALL the time when I am out walking with my yorkie puppy. My answer is always, he’s just a yorkie. I always get a very confused look because my little boy is so tiny. My friend & breeder (I use this term loosely because I’ve known her 4 years and her yorkie has had one litter and no plans to breed in the future) had 2 puppies and gave one to myself and one to her sister. I did not pay for my baby boy who is now 9 months old, even though he is purebred. Mr. Bean is his name and he is 3.9lbs. I never thought of getting a small dog until my friend asked if I wanted to adopt a puppy. Now I don’t think I would ever adopt another breed.

[Samantha-fdjs]

Thank you so much
I was thinking which one to get
I was like " a Yorkie terrier or a teacup

[Ladeedi]

So informative!!! Thank you! I want my baby to be in the smaller side, 6lbs or under but I don’t know, just keeping my fingers crossed 🤞🏾 I’ll live him whatever. Two more days! I found him on puppy find. I’m driving 2.5 hours to get him, (didn’t get a chance to add this to your how I got my yorkie video)😄
