| Used the Puppy Growth Chart but still need help Hi all, Im relatively new and have a 16 week old pup her name is Bindi and she is absolutely beautiful!! She was weighed today at the vet and is 4lbs and 1oz. I checked on the growth chart and she didnt fit anywhere!! is she going to be a giant yorkie? lol also, if you can recall, what did your baby weigh at 16weeks? Attached is a pic of her from the Dog Park (i went with a fellow YTer SilyJille) Thanks! Vaishali |

| Goodness, he just has the cutest lil face! Mmmm.. well, my Bentley is going on 6 months & he weighs around 4lbs. On the other hand, my Bobby (RIP) weighed about double his weight at 6 months. It wil more than likely depend on the amount he eats & how much he's exercising. Either way, he's adorable!

| It depends on her rate of growth. The charts are only a guideline. She will probably be on the large end though |

| I'm not sure on even how to use that chart but Jasmine is 2 yrs and 3 months next Tuesday (april 1st) and she weighs 8 but she's not large she just has long legs, but even if yours does weigh within the 7-8lb range they are still small, jmo she sure is a cutie pie though!!!!! i wish i had dog parks like that where i lived!!

| Growth charts are never completely accurate...just a guideline. Just to give you an idea though: Maddie was about 2.5 lbs at 16 weeks, and is now 5 lbs full grown. Sophie was about 2 lbs at 16 weeks, and is now 3.5 lbs at 11 months. Faith was about 1.5 lbs at 16 weeks, and is now 2 lbs, 6 ounces at almost 7 months. Ryder was a pound at 16 weeks, and is now 2 lbs, 5 ounces at almost 7 months. Tucker was about 3 lbs at 16 weeks, and is now 4.5 lbs at 9 months. |

Donating YT 10K Club Member | Ramsey was 5 lbs at 15 weeks. She is two now and weighs 11 pounds. She's not fat....she's big boned. Sometimes doubling their 12 week weight is more accurate than that puppy growth chart.

| thanks all for the replies!!! lol its ok for the he/she mix up! i knew whatcha meant. dont worry :-P she doesnt seem big to me at all. i actually dont want her to stay as small as she is right now.Im constantly on her making sure she doesnt sneak off somewhere. id like her to in the 6lb range. i think ill be less scared with her playing with other dogs then. thanks again!! |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | Bindi is a cutie. Roxie was 4 months when I got her and she was 2 lb 13 ounces and now at 25 weeks she weighs 3.6 lbs so they do slow down in their growth sometimes early. Roxie has long legs and is taller at 25 weeks then my 2 an 3 year olds that weigh more. So weight can be deceptive.

| Elvis just went to the vet's day before yesterday and at 161/2 weeks, he weighed 3 lbs 6 oz. Vet said he's a little on the thin side weight-wise, but it's because he had a growth spurt and believes that his weight will catch up, but we're keeping an eye out. He really is skinny as a rail right now.
