On our prior vet appointment the vet said my yorkie would weigh about 5 pounds at full growth. Now Im confused as she only weighs 2.3 pounds
They told me today that she lost a little bit and is probably cause she
is more active 1 month ago she weighed 2.9
My yorkie is so excited to see other people she appears hypper to them
but as soon as everyone leaves she calms down and goes and lies down
She is only 5 months old
Does anyone know at what age do yorkies get to their mature weight?
Also what food should I be feeding her? And if anyone has any good advice
can you telll me where I can get this food?
as I am very concerned about the nutrition of my baby yorkie  |
No one can guarantee or predict the size a yorkie will be. It all depends on her lineage. Her parents being a certain weight doesn't tell you anything. Other contributing factors are her grandparents and great grandparents, as well as what is way back their in her pedigree.
How a yorkie grows is determined again, by lineage. Some will grow fast up front. Other's will grow slowly. But, most of the time by the time they are anywhere from 8 months to a year is when they will be what they will be, that is as far as size.
What are you feeding your yorkie?
