| When will he stop growing? Hello All! Preston is 20 weeks tomorrow... He's 2.5 lbs. now and I'm very excited about it. When do yorkies usually stop growing? Also, the top of his head has turned completely white and looks super cute!!!! But does that mean he's going to be all white? |

| That is the million dollar question. Some say 6mnths-12mnths and other say later. And, I have heard the white turns tan. But, you never know with these dogs

| Hobbs' head turned completely white too, when he was about 4 months old!!! Now he is 6 months old and the white is turning a darker gray and some dark beige is also mixing in there. Yorkies don't reach their true color until they are around 2 years old, so you have a while to watch him change! |

Wyatt is 8 months old. I just weighed him yesterday and he was almost 9 1/2 lbs. I couldn't believe it. He is very muscular & stocky. Mollie is small boned. He is definitely like his daddy. The top of his head is mostly grey, still with some black, cream & some gold. His body is salt & pepper. I think he will be silver & tan like his daddy but, I could be surprised. Of course it doesn't matter to me.

| I'm sure most would agree that by one year, they have stopped growing but if they are overfed, then, of course, could get overweight. Chloe changes colors all the time but Lacey seems to have settled on tan/black. |

| "yorkies are like a box of chocolates, you never know whatcha gonna get!" bunjee is 6 months old now and about 6.5 lbs, still growing. his body hair is still jet black, but the top of his head and face have lightened up a lot to light browns and silvers. i can't wait to see how he'll turn when he's all grown! |

Lol. I like that! Aggie's going to be 5 months old this Friday and 3.5 (maybe 4 now) lbs. She hasn't changed that much. Top of her head has tan mixed with black/gray. Bottom of her coat is grayish right now. I've seen her parents. They're both as golden as they come. That quote, SOO true. | |
