The standard says nothing about a Yorkie weighing 4 to 7 pounds...it simply states.."Not to exceed 7 pounds"...that is the ideal size..but I have had many 2 and 3 pounders from much larger parents...one of my favorite bitches, Nadine was 8 pounds, she had 6 pups once...none went over 4 pounds..and the sire was 5 pounds...genes are very tricky. |
