Bender weighs 4lbs, but my mother has 2 male yorkies (Simon and Carrick) who weigh 13lbs and 8lbs...and even though I often call Simon by the nickname Tubby, just to be funny (and because he is overweight), it's just a normal thing that yorkies vary in size. Since he is from the Humane Society, maybe the place he lived before you fed him some extremely fattening foods he shouldn't have eaten? Just a suggestion. If you think he looks overweight talk to a vet about the possibility of putting him on a slimming (yet healthy) diet. |
