We have two. They are from the same pair, but different litters. The older one, Bailey, is about 6 1/2 pounds, and at that she always looks very little to me. Her younger sister, Meggie, is a bit over 7 pounds. We saw both of the parents when we chose Bailey, so we had a pretty good idea what to expect. I really don't remember, but I think they were both up to about 5 pounds by the time they were 6 months old.
Everyone has their own preferences, but my wife and I have moved from initially thinking we would like to have had smaller Yorkies to now being very glad they aren't really tiny. Ours are big enough to play with vigorously, but they still look pretty small to us - and most other people. Of course, I think they're perfect, but if I had to choose again and the choice was limited to either bigger than our two or smaller than our two, I'd definitely go with larger. |
