You can look at a 5 pound baby and say...that child will be a tiny adult or a vice versa....you are just never guarenteed...which is what I dont understand at this point reading the threads so far...he is very small now and could very well be a small dog...or he could be standard or bigger...thats just part of watching a yorkie grow up...I guess my question is how will you know your next puppy will grow up to be the size you want since there are no guarentee's...I hope you find him a new home soon before he gets attached to you...he deserves the best!!

I'm just curious and really would like to get some feedback on this.
I've heard of people having tiny puppies that just weighed ounces at around 11-12 weeks and turned out the be 6-8 lbs when grown.
But has anyone here had a puppy who was almost 2 lbs by 11 weeks that turned out the be less than 5 lbs when grown?
