| Weight Question Hello, I know this topic has been posted before and I've read some of the previous threads, but I guess I still need some opinions/reassurance. My little baby is 8 weeks old and currently weighs 2.5 lbs. Both mom and dad are 5lbs. According to the puppy growth chart she should end up to be about 7.5lbs. How accurate is the chart really? And I would love to see photos of 7.5lb babies just so I can get an idea of the size she may be. (I am a first time yorkie owner, and she'll be joining our family at the end of the month.) I already bought a few outfits and I think I may have to return them. Thanks in advance. |

| I'm showing around 6 1/2 to 7 1/2 lbs. but, that can change, she could slow down on her growth, or she could end up like my first one did and be 14 lbs. |

| I hear its double the weight at 12 weeks and triple it at 8 weeks. The chart estimated Max to be 3.8 full grown and hes now 11 months and is 3.1 pounds. Maybe he will grow some more maybe not. I know that he hasnt grown any for a few months. so we just have to wait and see really no one knows for sure how big they will get.
