I think i want to get some more weight on him. What would be the best way to do that.  |
Did you get an estimated weight from his breeder? How big is his parents and past litters? When you look at the Yorkie puppy weight chart at
Yorkshire Terrier - Yorkie Puppy Growth/Weight Chart - watch us grow it puts him at around 4 pounds estimated adult weight, if he follows that growth pattern.
When my boy Jeter was a little over 3 months old he was 1 pound 4 ounces, he is now 14 months old and is 2 pounds 8 ounces, he's so tiny! He was estimated to be about 4 pounds as an adult by his breeder and she was going with past litter's from the same parents. It seemed to take him forever to gain just an ounce! I worried about him being small and not gaining weight. I took him in for weekly weight checks for the longest time at his vet's. He ate well and was healthy, so my vet said he was just going to be a smaller boy.
