At the same time, i am so in love with this little girl it is so hard to let go. As much as i chose her out of the 8 puppies that were there, it kind of seemed like she chose me too. She was constantly running over to me and crawling all over my lap, she just wouldn't leave me alone! She has such a BIG personality at just 5 weeks  *sigh* There is something else i noticed just recently.. if you look at the picture where i am holding her little face up to thr camera, you can see her tail. Is it docked too short?! |
Every one here has given you great advise...and I know how hard it is to walk away from that adorable little face...maybe ask the breeder if she can keep her until she reaches a certain weight, like someone had said here..As far as weight goes...you never know...my first yorkie's Mom was 10 lbs and Dad was 4...Sadie is 6 1/2 lbs. Lillie's mom was 5 1/2 lbs and Dad was 3 lbs...Lillie is 5 1/2 lbs...Not sure of the weight of Bentleys parents but we got him at 5 months old and he weighed 2.5 lbs...he will be 1 next month and just barely weighs 4 lbs...he gets neutered Tuesday...hoping he gains a bit after that...
