Hi, I'm new to this site. I'm wondering if there is anyone out there than can help me figure out if my 'yorkie' is 100%. He was sold to me as a purebred but at 7 months old I'm not convinced. Some say yes, including a breeder and some say not a chance, including a breeder.
It makes a difference to me. I've saved for a couple years to make this purchase. I did research breeders, but could not find a local breeder that had pups ready. I chose not to import one because of potential hazards, loss or suffering for the pup in transport. And of course the possibility of getting ripped off. I feel I've been had and just want some peace of mind.
I realize there is no guarantee of weight or ears standing. My questionable signs are:
1. At 7 months he is 12lbs, he doesnt get people food and barely eats the amount eukenuba recommendeds
2. His ears are big and floppy compared to all other yorkies Ive researched
3. He has huge front paws, no kidding
4. His tail is docked but is curled up.
Those are the most obvious. He obviously has yorkie in him but seems to have something else like a lhaso or maltese. Ill try to post pictures, but like I said, this is new to me, hopefully I will find my way back here for feedback.
Thank you in advance, hopefully someone can help me.
