hello all! I just put a reservation deposit down on my first yorkie! It is a little boy, and he will be ready for me to pick him up in May. I am beyond excited! I have been talking to the breeder frequently, but am a little nervous at how much weight he has gained recently.

He weighed in at 15 oz at 2 weeks! The breeder tells me that the mom is just nursing them a lot. The mom is 6 lbs and the dad is just barely 3 lbs. Is weighing this much normal while nursing?

Thanks!
