| New with Yorkies Hi everyone, I just signed up with Yorkie talk and I am enjoying reading the postings. I have a 5month old Yorkie, Indiana, and love him to death. One question I have is size. Indy is 5 months and already weighs 8lbs. He is registered, his sister was alot smaller than him. I have read so many conflicting reports about size. He is a really great dog, just curious if anyone has bigger yorkies. |

| Hi River, We just had a thread in the last week, I believe, asking how much everyone's yorkies weigh. If you'll do a "search" on the blue tab above for that topic you can see how varied the weight of everyone's yorkies is. |

| Welcome to YT. I personally have a smaller dog, but there are many members on the board who have bigger yorkies, I think one is 18#, maybe brownie??? You will love your pup no matter what. The general weight calculator is to take the weight at 12 weeks and double it and that will be around what size you pup will be fully grown. |
