I took her to the vet today for her checkup and the scale read 1.14, I am assuming that means she is 18.24 ounces. First, is my conversion correct? So, the vet said, "Wow this is going to be a big yorkie!" So I am confused! I looked at a weight prediction chart and it says she should be around 3 pounds. The vet was telling me she was going to be 6 or 7 pounds. I don't know who to believe, the breeder or the vet! Please give me some insight and any info you have. Thanks so much! Amy |
Well as you have already been told, there is no such thing as a "teacup". But I didn't see anyone else address your weight conversion. I don't understand what the question is. If the vet said she weighed 1.14 that means she is one pound and 14 ounces. Now, on your conversion, I must be missing something. It takes 16 ounces to make a pound so wouldn't you add 16 plus 14 if you wanted it in all ounces? Wouldn't that be 30 ounces or am I the one that is wrong ?
