| Toy Breed Puppy Growth Chart convert your puppy weight to ounces -- 16oz equals 1 pound This chart will approximate your puppy's weight at different ages up to 18 months NOTE: an example; 10 week old puppy current weighs 2.2 lbs conversion 16 X 2 + 2 = 34 ounces next find puppy's current age to the left then follow along until you find 34; next follow to the bottom of that column estimated adult weight is 5lbs. *Remember this is a gauge*. *Most babies will slow weight gain after six months of age*. http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/growth_chart.doc |

| That sounds small to me. Ollie was 3 pounds 3 ounces at 5 months. she is 6 1/2 months now and is still under 4 pounds. I'm hoping she makes it to 4. Although their growth slows down, I believe they continue to grow until they go into their first heat. I'm guessing Cocco will stay under 4 pounds. |

| I would guess 3.5 to 4lbs. Oscar was 2.2lbs at 5mths and he's 3lbs on the nose right now.
