My pup is about 5 months old and probably weighs at least 6 pounds. And, he is the cutest thing in the world. He is absolutely hell on wheels. He has changed to silver and tan and is beautiful. And his personality wins whatever prizes there might be out there for personalities. He is affectionate, shy, outgoing, docile, brave and daring, and sweet. He is a combination of everything a dog can be.
Since he is so crazy playful and daring - I'm glad he has a couple extra pounds on him. They will serve him well and probably save his life from time to time.
I am keeping him in a puppy cut for now. But his hair has grown very fast from the first day I got him. I've decided that he does have a silky coat because it straight and easy to comb (when he allows it). It never seems to matt even though he wears clothes and belly bands a lot.
To be honest - I am hoping he doesn't go beyond about 8 pounds - but guess what! I'll wouldn't be surprised if he does. His mother was 12 pounds and his father was 4 1/2 pounds - so he could be anything! I'll take another picture of him eventually and post it.
Anyway - I am very pleased with him. He has such a wonderful personality, and he's a very handsome little guy!
I feel that I lucked out - and got a wonderful little dog.
