Have you ever seen an unattractive Yorkie?

All of the Yorkies on here are so so beautiful.
They are just amazing looking!

I sometimes feel like my Buddy isn't as beautiful or as handsome as some of the Yorkies on this site.

Although, I would NEVER trade him ever, I love him so much and he is a GREAT dog, I just feel like I never get the "Oh my gosh he is so cute" compliments, anywhere I go.

I get the "He is such a great, well-behaved dog" comment, which makes me feel good as an owner, but once and a while I would love to hear that I have a beautiful or cute Yorkie, and I just never seem to get that.

Is that because he isn't a peanut and doesn't weight 5 lbs and he weighs 10 lbs?

Just wondering if the tiny teeny dogs get the cute comments more than the bigger Yorkies?

I love my Buddy and he is the best! He is cute, handsome and beautiful to ME!

I think your Buddy is adorable and I'm surprised that you haven't gotten any comments about that. He has such a sweet face and seems to be smiling for the camera. I don't think size determines how cute our furbabies are. What's more important is that they are our babies and they are great little dogs and a great breed to own. My Bailey thinks your Buddy is very handsome !!!

She is very CUTe, I have a 10 pound Yorki, I do know what you mean. When I had a tiny one, it was always, look at that pup , on and on. Just becouse there small makes people comment. My 10 pounder is the first 100% housebroken Yorkie I've ever had,,,,,,,so I LOVE her, and I think she is adorable.

Well, i think he is SUPER CUTE!!!!
and trust me, getting the compliment about him being a well behaved dog is way better. i mean, i think that's the most important thing! i've seen some really cute yorkies, but they are not well-trained and well-bahaved, and they give yorkies the bad reputation of barky crazy little dogs...

and when i was getting my baby milu, there was a little boy who was a bigger yorkie, and he was absolutely adorable, and the breeder was selling him for less money, (i can't remember why he was doing that) (just cause he is bigger? that's silly!) i really wanted to get that 'little' boy but i REALLY wanted a girl yorkie so i can put dress on her! so i didn't get the adorable boy yorkie.

anyway, i think Buddy is adorable! if people didn't tell you he is cute, that's because they are crazy.

You have the best of both worlds...an adorable yorkie who is well behaved. You are one lucky owner!!!

Aw you guys are great!
And believe it or not, if the Yorkie is bigger they are sold for less.
I have NO idea why, but they are.
The tinier ones and females go for the most expensive then the teeny males, then the bigger ones are like discounted, which must make them feel like an outcast. I know if I was a dog, I would feel bad, that people may not want me just cuz I am a few pounds bigger.


Thanks guys! You made my day!

Buddy is getting his first grooming since I have had him in 2 weeks, so we will see how he looks then! I hope not too different, because I LOVE the way his fur is covering his eyes and face! It is cute!

i did notice that smaller dogs are more pricey. i guess there is a demand for smaller dogs? well, from my personal experience, i wanted a small dog, but not too small, because i was concerned about health issues. so when i got milu, i was under the impression that she should grow to 5lb. i mean, even if not 5lb. at least 4lbs. but milu is almost 8 months old now, and she stopped growing and weighs a whopping 2.6lbs!!! and i think most smaller dog owners will tell you that they are always so worried about the little ones getting hurt while playing with other dogs, or just getting stepped on by people.

anyways, they are all lovable!!! but there are some concerns as well, when your baby is tiny.

another example is that i can never sleep well at night, because i am always worried that i will crush my baby. also, i need to put a bell on her, otherwise it's hard for me to find her sometimes! LOL

buddy is cute where are you taking him for his grooming? make sure you really communicate with the groomer and make sure they understand how you want buddy's hair cut to look like, i was upset after milu's first hair cut, because i didn't like the way it looked. so now i always REALLY make sure they know how i want them to cut milu's hair.

I love the pup cut and I think that is what I am going to go for.
I am NOT taking him to PetCo or PetSmart, because I have heard some horror stories, so I am taking him to a local groomer in RI. I plan on watching because I got puppy clippers and after I take him a few times, I plan on doing it myself. So hopefully I am a fast learner!

I think Buddy is adorable!!!! He's such a handsome little fella, wish I could just squeeze him up ~~~~~~ hehe!

[Shelby&Seymour]

Oh my....... are you kidding??? Buddy is a very cute!!! I love the 2nd pic of him............. You have lots of choices as far as a cut for him. The puppy cut is very cute!.... you could even leave it long enough on his head for a topknot! (unless he doesn't like bows/barrettes).

[MissTinkerbelle]

He does not like bows or barrettes and I am not a fan on them for male dogs either. I don't think my hubby would be thrilled walking a male with a bow! Lol, that is just how males think. Lol.

What cuts do you all suggest for him?

Your Buddy reminds me of my Daisy She is a very good dog, I wouldn't say the most well behaved dog I've ever seen, but she's a real sweetheart. When I take Abby and Daisy out, people will actually say to me that they like the little one best I want to cover Daisy's ears! Granted, Abby is adorable and tiny, but Daisy is gorgeous! People are just drawn to smaller dogs I guess. We also have an 85 lb Golden Retriever and you couldn't ask for a sweeter dog than her.

BTW, I love a puppy cut on Daisy. She looks so pretty right after a good grooming.

I think Buddy is very handsome! If you ever get tired of people not giving him enough compliments, you could always send him to me

I think that all dogs have their special "look" and that doesn't mean they're not "cute"...I have yet to see a dog that I thought was ugly...they are allll cute to me, but ESPECIALLY yorkies .

On that note, Maddie says to tell you that it's what's on the INSIDE that counts...lol

[scruffycharlie]

your dog is very cute! i wonder why people don't make comments about how sweet he looks.

it's funny, charlie is a scruffy, stinky little guy, but since he's so tiny, he gets tons of comments when we take him for walks, and it helps that he's so loving to everyone.
