| Jaxson Barely Missed! I took Jaxson to the vet today for his last set of vaccinations (except rabies which he will get by itself in 2 weeks) and they weighed him. He is 2lbs 15ozs! Darn it he missed 3 lbs by 1oz!!!!! augggghhhhhh! He turned 4 months on the 11th and the vet said he was in excellent health . He has never had a hypo attack, LP non exsistant, never a runny stoll, never threw up.. Solid build, beautiful coat, and a momma's boy all the way! I attribute this to his breeder she is great! Anyone in Florida who is looking for a breeder with great quality yorkies with 20 years experience let me know or PM me. I will be glad to direct you to her in Pinellas Park, Fl. I am so proud of my little man. I do hope he gets bigger though... maybe he'll have a growth spurt and get to be at least 4lbs. |

| It's great that he is in good health. It is such a relief to know that I remember that I used to check Haruka's weight everyday by postal scale..

| My little guy is 2 1/2 pounds and has been jumping up on the couch since he was a lot younger. He is only 17 week old now. It scares me because he gets up on the back of it and I am afraid he will lose his balance or another dog will accidentally knock him off. I have a little stool I bought at the dollar store and they use it to get up and down but even when I took it away when they were younger they would just dig the claws in and crawl up it instead. I couldnt keep them down and they were way to small to be crawling up there. Makes me very nervous. |

| Big Bad Debbie will be five years old at the end of the month and weighs three pounds. She too never got sick except for the time she licked the nearly empty tuna fish salad bowl that had been made with Tobasco. She's been able to get up on the couch and the bed since she was a few months old but I did get steps for my bed. Better to get him in the habit of using the steps while he's young and save some wear and tear on his knees. http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y29...6/DSC00060.jpg |

| If that's what he weighs now at 4 months, you can be almost certain he'll be at least 4 pounds. No worries! |

| Yeah I am going to get some steps for him because I didn't want him to do unnessessary jumping. I guess my couch is too high because I'll be gosh darn if he DOESN'T TRY HIS HARDNEST. But Jaxson is short and stocky and not very long either so that may have something to do with it too. I will be getting the steps soon though. Thanks for the feedback guys! |
