Welcome to YT!
You do sound like an ideal owner! I was also wondering about the 5lb thing.
Adie (aka the little princess) weighs 5lb but can go up as much as 5.5 lbs. She is a very dainty little thing without being delicate. Skeeter on the other hand is 6lb 8oz and a chunky monkey. When I look at him by himself he looks like a tiny little dog but I can see that he is a tad bit taller and longer than Adie. Neither one qualify as big yorkies so I think you would be happy and have an easier time getting what you want if you raise your weight requirement to 7lbs.
Also have you considered adopting from a rescue? You could start the search for one of them as early as June and you would be able to see the weight and coloring right away.
Good luck and let us know how you are progressing with your weight loss and puppy search. |
