| Yorkie's Weight When we got Carib at 2 months, he weighed between 1 - 2 pounds, so sounds like your puppie's weight is fine. Carib is now 2 1/2 and weighs between 7 - 8 pounds, which is about normal for this breed.

| clare did I read this right??? my yorkie had a puppy 3 weeks ago and he now weighs 1 1/2lb, is this weight normal for a young yorkie pup ? A puppy that your mommie just had is 1 1/2lbs at 3 weeks old??? is this the only one in the litter? if so your baby is eating like a cow and grazing on every teat till their empty lol. What is the normal weight of your mommie and the sire? average weight on a 3 week old pup is usually under a pound unless dam/sire are larger. Seems like you have a real healthy and happy little pup there! after 4 weeks in past experience is when they will pass a pound. I wouldnt worry since she is the only one there for dinner she gets it all, the weight will regulate once you wean the baby.
