I may be wrong, but is a Yorkie only supposed to be 7 lbs. and under, or is that only by AKC standards? Are CKC standards for larger ones? Or perhaps it is past genetics from the larger breeds in the past showing back up?
You can see Jackson compared to his little friends, Nala (5.6lbs) and Bandit (4.5lbs).

This is when Nala was a pup, so she was probably only like 2-3lbs. http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/att...s-img_2501.jpg
