Beginning to think I have about the oldest Yorkies around. Rosie, 11 yrs. old weighs 5.2 lbs., Cocoa, 10 yrs. old, weighs 3.4 lbs., (both rescues so I don't know any of their baby weights) and Chipper, 1 yr. old, weighed 1.7 lbs. at 12 wks. and now weighs 4.2 lbs. I just caught a stray Yorkie last Tuesday that weighed around 12 lbs. I took her to a rescue, and they said she was about 9 mo. old. (I kept her for several days after notifying the local vet, city clerk, and police. No response. Am glad I went to the bother of keeping her because the local vet puts strays down in 2-3 days if not claimed. We live in a very small community.) The rescue assured me that they had a waiting list for Yorkies. Even so, I made sure that if there was a problem, I wanted her back to take her to a Yorkie rescue in Texas. My point being, we love our Yorkies no matter what their sizes are.
