What is the weight difference between a toy Yorkshire terrier and a teacup Yorkshire terrier?

there is no breed of yorkie called teacup....its just a runt... the breed size for a yorkie is about 7 lbs and up...if you are selling yorkies and someone insist on a teacup do not sell to them.... they are looking to breed runts to produce a runt litter......big mistake because the ancestors of the sire or bitch may be a much larger dog and your little runt may not be able to handle her pregnancy and die or have problems with deliveryAnswer addition: Well, actually the breed standard for yorkies is less than 7 pounds. Therefore, the entire breed is called a "toy" breed. Some people consider yorkies to be teacups if they are under 4 pounds but that is not recognized by any breed standard at all. AKC does not recognize a difference and the previous answer was correct - the smaller the dog, the more difficult it is for them to survive giving birth. Plus, most smaller yorkies - 2-3 lbs are lucky if they give birth to even one pup in a litter!

A yorkie is the same type of dog as a yorkshire terrier so they bark about the same amount. The term "yorkie" is just a shorter nickname for the yorkshire terrier. It also depends where you live if you live in the city they will bark alot and if you live in the country they dont bark as much.


What is the average weigh for yorkies?

It also depends on if it's purebred or a "toy" breed. Toys are not purebreeds, but are actually the runts being bred down to make them small. The Toy breed is unhealthy and do not have the same lifespan as a Purebred Yorkshire. My Yorkshires will range from 3-7lbs. They are Pure German lines, unlike the impure breed being sold stateside.
