what do you think of this little guy? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Hi,I am looking for a boy to show what do you think of him.He is almost 8 month and is 3.8 lbrs,that is one of my concerns if he makes it to 4.8 I'll be happy.

Ladyhawk · 01-15-2009, 05:35 AM

He has such a pretty face and he looks nice structurally as well. I would be concerned about his size though. I like to see them at least 5 pounds for the ring. Around here it helps them to have presence though there are some judges that like them small and dark. It's a tough decision isn't it?

Yes it is a hard decision!!!Around here they like them small but at least 4.8 pounds.

He is absolutely beautiful. I would think he could reach 4.8, especially if he is a little on the lean side right now. It might take him a year to get there but that is okay. Do you know how tall he is at the shoulder? Where you show are the dogs on the bigger side or smaller side? Sometimes it is a little harder to finish the smaller boys but I have seen it done.

Who is he out of? Connor didn't stop growing until he was 18 months old.

I don't know anything about showing, but I couldn't help but tell you how beautiful he looks!

He is out of Camparis Blue Print.Here in Latin America judges like smaller dogs I can't understand why.

nikkinack · 01-15-2009, 06:35 AM

I think he is beautiful

PrestigeousYT · 01-15-2009, 09:13 AM

He is beautiful. I love his face!!
He should body out as he matures.

donnarod · 01-15-2009, 11:27 AM

He is perfect in my eyes, I know nothing about showing.

DreamsComeTrue · 01-15-2009, 02:08 PM

He has a beautiful topline! Gorgeous boy! I hope he works out for you!

Yorkiekids · 01-15-2009, 04:23 PM

I don't know anything about showing, but I'd vote for him.

Tank you all on your nice compliments.I will keep you all informed on how he does.Here is a picture of my boy I am showing he is 6.8 pounds,this is why I am looking for something smaller,judges don't seem to like dogs that size around here.

I like a yorkie with some substance. He sure has a nice gold on him.

I think he is stunning! That's the exact same weight that my Harley is. I think it's a nice size. Too bad the judges in your area don't!

I wanted to show Harley, but he has a very slight underbite, and isn't as square as I would like. So hopefully my next yorkie will meet the standard better and I can get into the ring. Good luck with your little guy!
