Hi Everyone -

This is my first litter (only one female yorkie in the litter) - She is pretty big, and my concern is - IS SHE TOO BIG FOR HER AGE? She's about 1 pound 16 ozs. She's only 5 weeks old and she's a bit pudgy - which is darling - but is that normal? Will she thin out when she starts running around? She's just now teething and starting to run around - but she eats non-stop and she always cries for more. Poor Mommy - but my concern is - are they suppost to be a little big at this age or do I have a over weight puppy because she's a single puppy. Should I talk to my vet about it - he even joked about her size the last time he saw her.

Please let me know if I'm overfeeding my baby -

Katie
