Though Lucky isn't 10 lbs, he and Eddie look to be built the same, stocky and solid as a rock. Eddie doesn't look to be 10 lbs....how tall is he? Lucky is probably standard height for a yorkie and weighs 7lb 11 ounces. He used to be 8lbs or more, but we got his weight down. He is so much more active now. Our vet says he could even be in the 6lb range, but with his build, IDK if we'll ever get there. It took about a year to get him down to what he is now. |
Yeah, Eddie's sort of built like a bowling ball. He's 10" tall, 14 long, but very stalky. His hind legs feel like the big turkey legs you buy at the fair.
I'm always stressing about his weight. My gut feeling is about 9.5 pounds would be ideal for him, but I haven't been able to get him to that weight. Others say his weight looks fine.
