Hei all,

My yorkie, Birk, is one year and one month old. When he was 11 months he was castrated. Now his weight is 4,5kgs and I think this is overweight for a yorkie, isn't it? He eats twice a day, with good appetite and goes for walks at least twice a day. Although we have had winter (Norway) and the walks have not been very long. Do I need to put him on a diet?
Has anybody experienced this? What are your male yorkies weight? Would be nice to know in Kgs though

Thanks for helping!
