| I'm no yorkie expert but he sounds perfect to me! These little cuties come in all sizes - 7lb and under is standard, and lots of us here have yorkies that are bigger than standard. I'm not sure at what age yorkies stop growing, so maybe someone else will be able to give you more of an idea how big your little one will be when full-grown. Would love to see some pics of your furbaby xxx xxx

My little boy was 3.7 for the longest time. But recently had a small growing spurt. He is now a little over 7 months of age and he weighes 4.2 lbs. I am hoping he will be in the 5 lb range when all is said and done.
