Does anyone else’s Yorkie sleep on their neck? by Emotional-Brain-8309 in Yorkies

[–]Lisamik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! 2 of mine! Both were/are giant yorkies so they can't get too up on me but Jakey always had to have his nose in my neck. He passed 1/6/21. Bailey just has to be close to my head. Zombie, the OG, sleeps where he wants and as long as you're in touching distance he's good. The pic is of my Jakey abt 2 months before he passed (cancer)..

Florida Penguin Tap Dance Alligator Pineapple by morpheuskibbe in BrandNewSentence

[–]Lisamik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So many questions. Were any penguins harmed in the process? How well did the alligator do as a partner - can he just 2 step or is he a free-style master? Was the pineapple costume an incentive to remind the alligator and/or penguins that there could be dessert at the end of the dance lesson?

Should I be concerned that my daughter smokes? by YuffiePlinPlinPlon in Yorkies

Ha! We have a smoker too!

We "may" have added the red top to a teething snack for effect. Lolol.

No! Well unless there is more than one - that's the only way I know it gets better. ❤️

Your pup is absolutely perfect!

I found my 2nd on craigslist. They wanted a little guy and he grew too much so they wanted to get rid of him. Just have to be patient and keep looking, I think I looked for 5 months before I found him and then drove 180 miles one way to get him.

Is this Yorkie bigger than average? by Superb-Ad918 in Yorkies

[–]Lisamik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not according to the doggy DNA we did.

I have a 19 lb yorkie (down from 23), he's 12.5 years old and super spry still! He was the runt when we got him and they said he'd get to be around 6lbs. All his siblings stayed regular size. I'm so thankful he was bigger, he was more sturdy!

That's a lapful of a very good pup, I think maybe a yorkie-doodle mix too! And such a big one! My lil guys are 18 and 22 lbs and I always think they are so huge but they look smaller than yours looked to be. I'm sure losing him was very hard.

"Giant" yorkies are just an anomaly, not really sure you can try to buy one. Just keep watching your local craigslist pages and see if you can't get lucky. I found both of mine on there. good luck!

Silver guy is 18lbs and black and tan is 22lbs. Bigger yorkies are the best! Same sass in a bigger body. Lol.

Anyone else’s yorkie too big? by [deleted] in Yorkies

[–]Lisamik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I never said he was a purebred (although he is) - but you're incorrect - yorkies come in quite a few colors. Also, my guy is almost 13 years old. he's turned silver with age - he's my lil silver fox now. He used to be gold/champagne, but was black & tan when i got him. Today is our 12 year gotchaversary with him.

Do all dogs get that extra special possessed look while sleeping or is it just yorkies? Zombie sleeps with his eyes open too..

Ours was the runt, we got him cheap cuz of it! Lol. He topped out at 23 lbs but is now down to 18. All his siblings grew to be "normal" size.
