Sparky weighed 1 lb 6 oz at 6 weeks. 4 weeks later he had gained to 3 lb 5 oz. 4 weeks later he was 5 lb 10 oz. Yesterday (4 weeks later) he had a visit with the vet and he weighed 7 lb 8 oz. So based on the premise that they double the 12 week weight, my little man will be about 10 to 11 lbs. His Mom weighed 7 lbs and his Dad weighed 5 lbs, but it looks like my little "porker" may outdo them. And that's fine with me, because he is such a high quality boy. He has the best personality and is perfect for me and my family. He was the bigger one of the litter, and was picked out by my Pastor's wife. He was a gift from them and my family. He is my first Yorkie, and I'm paranoid about his size as it is (I'm used to 50 - 100 lb dogs). But the next one (and ohhhhh there will DEFINATELY be a next one) I would like it to be smaller. |
