Default Hi And welcome YT

I have never given my Yorkies vitamins. Sadie is 18 weeks old so we both got Christmas puppies....Congrats on your new baby! We all love to see pics so she her off to us!

I just started free feeding, where her food is down all the time so she can eat when she wants. I have an expen so she can have her bed, toys, a pee pad, and her food and water in the pen with her when I am not home. That way I don't have to worry if I will be back in time to feed her....

Here's a growth chart for your baby... convert the pounds into oz and you can follow the chart down to where she will wind up! http://www.YorkiePassion.com/

It sounds like your baby might be a bit on the bigger side. Sadie just gained 8 oz in two weeks and now weighs 3 pounds! I was surprised at how much she gained. The growth chart worked perfectly for Chewy my older yorkie but for Sadie I think it could be off cause it says she will be 4-5 pounds and if she is gaining like this she will be bigger also. I love her to death and what ever she is she is.

My husband hated small dogs till he met Chewy. Now he is crazy for them and they love him to death...I know what you mean about when he walks in the door!
