My parents yorkie was overweight at 7lbs and is now at a healthy weight of 6lbs. There is a huge difference in his appearance just by that 1lb difference. And if Maggie was already a little "chunky" then 2 ounces more just adds to the extra weight
oh, i see someone already responded with the same info...only a little more detail LOL thanks michelle
