Doll Face Yorkie
If you see someone advertising doll face yorkies be careful. Actually the code of ethics from the Yorkshire Terrier Club of America states that you should use the terms teacup, tiny specialists, doll faced or similar terminology. If you are looking for a doll face yorkie here is what you need to know.
A doll face yorkie is simply a yorkie with an extremely short muzzle, round eyes, and an apple-doomed head, which is not correct for the breed.
If a breeder will not adhere to simple ethics of advertising for yorkies, will they adhere to all the health checks needed?
These yorkies are prone to a number of health defects later in life, which makes breeding them unethical as well.
If you do like the look of a doll face yorkie, but find a breeder who has yorkies with shorter muzzles.
You have to look for a large number of breeders before you actually buy one. Some people have been burned for several thousands of dollars because they wanted the tiniest and cutest yorkie they could find, and did not care about what the health status was.
Don’t fool yourself and think that you know better. Look at lots of breeders and ask for lots of referrals before you buy.
Don’t let people rush you into a decision by saying they only have one left.
