Breeders who advertise âteacup Yorkiesâ are typically selling dogs that will not exceed 3 pounds and stand no more than 5 or 6 inches tall, which would not be accepted by the AKC. If the breeder is a reputable one with respected breeding practices, then your Yorkie should fall within the 4-7 pound weight range.
Dog hair grows at different speeds depending on the breed, age and diet. For example, a Yorkie puppy doesn't have substantial hair growth or need a hair cut for at least the first 16 weeks. After that, a Yorkie needs to have its hair trimmed at least every four to six weeks, which differs from other breeds.
