Also on a side note, if he’s 2.4 pounds now, how big will he probably get when full grown? I feed Him Nutra Lamb Puppy food, and mix some Wellness in 2-3 days of the week. I am not too concerned with his adult size (I got the biggest one in the litter purposely so he wouldn’t be too delicate). I’m just wondering. Thanks in advance for any advice.
waysh0==trim all the hair inside and out from his ears;not just the top 1/3 ;and taping can make a very big difference;do talk with your vet about this;it may take several weeks of taping; on for 5 days off for 2 days;
I know a little bit about yorkies;we've had 6 litters this year; if your pup weights 3 lb at 12 weeks;he should be around 6 lb when grown
