| What did your yorkie weigh at 8 weeks? Just curious. I've seen the growth charts that guestimate the adult weight. My baby is just 8 weeks old & weighed in at 1 lb 2 oz. I'm hoping she is going to make it to at least 4 lbs, but the charts have her between 3 & 3.5 lbs. So, what did your baby weigh at 8 weeks & how big are they now? Thought this would be fun for me while I have to wait another month or longer to get my baby. |

| I'm hoping the chart is wrong. It's fun to read the charts & then see how they follow it or don't follow it. I think baby girl still has a chance at being 4-5 lbs...keeping my fingers crossed. But the truth is, it doesn't matter what size she ends up. She's my baby & will be loved and spoiled no matter. I'm just trying to have a little fun while waiting for my baby to come home. It's gonna be a long month... |

| Chloe was under 2 pounds at 9 weeks old... I was a little nervous and kept hoping she would at least reach 5 pounds, by 7 months old she was only 4 pounds and I was sure we werent going to make it... now at just over a year old she is SIX POUNDS!!! They all grow at different rates! Congrats on the new addition... I can imagine the wait is pretty bad

| My Yorkie puppy weighed 2.5lbs at 7 weeks. I hope he gets to be around 9 lbs, we like the bigger Yorkies, but it doesn't matter he will still be our baby. |

| My 17 week old, "Princess" went to the vet on Monday and weighs 2 lbs. 8 oz. Our vet told me she will not get any bigger than 5 lbs. I have been looking at the yorkie weight charts and all have estimated 4 lbs. So, I was thrilled to hear Princess could reach 5 lbs. She is definitely a "petite" little girl. I love her so much! |

| Addie weighed in at 2.25 lbs at 12 weeks. She's two years old now and weighs around 5.5 lbs. It is fun to watch them grow. I kept saying "grow, Addie, grow!" when she was a puppy.
