| Puppy weight Pocket was weighed today. He's 3 lbs 2 oz and he's only 6 weeks and 3 days old. It seems like a a lot for his age. Anyone else experience this? Do they slim down after weaning from their mother? |

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | What do you mean "slim down"...most puppies are not at all "fat" or over weight... His weight at this point is merely genetics.

Yorkie Talker | Hungry puppys My puppy. Teddy is 9 weeks and he only weighs 3llb 4 oz so I guess pocket is eating more than mine. Going to have to feed mine up now I've read your post they told me to feed teddy 3 times. A day. On 20 grams of royals canine but after reding pockets weight. Being younger to I think I'll have to up his food |

| I feed my pup 3 times a day, half a cup of Royal Canin Junior Mini. She very rarely eats all 3 meals in a day, on average she eats about 2 out of 3 sometimes less all in. Poppy is 13 weeks and weighed 1.9kg so about 4lb at last vet check about 10 days ago. |

| Oh my goodness, my puppy is going to be HUGE! He is 15 weeks old and weighs 6 lbs. 15 oz. I just used that weight chart link that was posted and it said when he is fully grown he is going to be 11 lbs. 11 oz. I never knew that yorkies got that big! I wanted a little puppy that I could carry around in a purse and take every place with me. I knew a few weeks ago that was not going to be a possibility when he hit the 5 lb. mark but almost 12 lbs. is a big dog to me. My dachshund didn't reach that much until her old age and laying around all the time. It doesn't change my love for him but I am just shocked |
