| 6 months?? So Max is going to be 6 months on saturday the 19th, and I know a lot of people have been asking questions, lately, like whats the average weight, when does he/she stop growing, or how much does your yorkie weigh. Well none of those are my questiions. My question is this should I expect him to get taller and/or longer? I know he'll probably gain about 1 or two more pounds , but I read somewhere that most (not all) yorkies reach the maximum height and length at 6 or 7 months (they stop growing), and put on a few more pounds and fill out as they get older. Is this true because he has really slowed down, like, a lot. Any input is greatly appreciated!

| If I remember correctly, I think Riley stopped growing height/length at about 8 months. |

| ZoE was one week short of 7 months when she was spayed and she is now 11 months old. She definately grew between those two points. She's longer & taller now, but actually lost a few ounces.

Donating YT 4000 Club Member | Rhett didnt' stop growing until he was closer to 10 months,length wise. He put on another pound after his first birthday, too. I've had to buy him all new sweaters for this fall because the old ones only come up to his mid-chest this year (He's 21 months now).
