I just dug out my Maltese's weight chart since Maltese and Yorkies seem to have a similar growth pattern.
12 weeks: 28oz
2 years: 63oz
She followed the chart right down the line between 3.5 and 4 pounds from the day I got her and she is only a few ounces off from the double the weight at 12 weeks rule. I have also heard that it's double the weight and add half a pound for females and a pound for males. By that rule, she is almost dead on!
My Chihuahua followed the chart perfectly, too. But, I don't know how well a Chi can be compared to a Yorkie.
As you can see, I am obsessed with my babies!!!
