| When did your yorkies stop growing? Chloe is just at 6 months and just reached 4 lbs! She is so tiny. lol..I love her nomatter what size she is but we did expect her to be about 5 or 6 lbs full grown. I was just wondering when your yorkies pretty much stopped growing.

| i got milu when she was 20 weeks old, and she was 1.7 lbs. she did grow and gain some weight in a couple of weeks. i remember she was about 1.9 lbs when she was 25 weeks i think. i think every yorkie is different. some stops growing earlier than others. my guess is that if the yorkie is smaller, then they will grow for a longer period of time where as the bigger ones stops growing younger.

| I prayed every month, after six months, that Bud was done because each month he was 1lb larger. He didn't stop until he was 1 yr old and 13lbs. However, between 1 yr and 2yrs old he gained yet another 3lbs. Finally finishing at 16lbs and holding for the last 3yrs. |

some yorkies just refuse to grow, and other yorkies just refuse to stop growing too soon.

| Missy took foreverrrr to reach 3 lbs, when she finally did she was stuck there for 2 months! I thought that she had stopped growing, but she just had a growth spurt at 8 months of age. She gained another 6 ozs. I'm hoping for a little bit more She is currently 3 lbs 6 ozs and 8 months 1 week old.

| Hm, well, I'm sure Jackson is probably not finished growing yet. He's 7 months old and last time I checked weighed in at 13pounds. That was a few weeks ago. He looks a bit bigger now possibly. He grew so fast it seemed like! When I got him at 9 weeks, he couldn't have weighed more than 4 pounds. His 12 week appt. (he was almost 13 weeks) he was 6 pounds. Then at his 16/17 week appt. he was 8.6 pounds! At 6 months, he was 13 and I haven't weighed him since.

| Mine stopped stretching in height/length probably at around a year old. After that, she just filled in a bit more and hasn't gained any for a few months since. I think she's stopped otherwise, her body might end up a little larger than her head. |
