My Chloe weighs 3.3-3.5lbs. I have one teeny tiny female for sale that is 5mo. old and only weighs 1lb even. I also have a tiny male maltese that I am selling that is 9mo and 2lbs. I am strick STRICK about these going to certain homes... so I have them longer. But most of the puppies I sell and keep in touch w/ appear to about double on avg their 12wk weight. It isn't always the case... but more than not. This tiny Yorkie was only .8lbs at 11wks.. so I am anxious to see if she gets bigger... she seems to have leveled off. I feed her high fat cottage chs. every morning or she wouldn't even be there. I am hoping to get her to 2lbs (fingers crossed!).
