Bottle feeding, keeping her warm, relieving her..etc.

She is 100% healthy (says the vet)
and has just started walking today!
Her birthday is August 11th.

My question is-
How big was your baby/babies when they were a month old?
How big are they full grown?

I'm asking because I would love for her to be under 5 lbs.
Her mother was 3, father is 5.
Mother's parents are very small.
But i'm unsure about the dad's.

Thank you.
I am very sorry to hear the consequences of a momma yorkie passing. Was the actual birth of the pups the reason for her passing? I ask bc it is very risky for a dam under 5 lbs to be bred and give birth without complications.

To answer your question, how big at one month? I don't know. As most here did not get our pups that young. Even at 8 weeks (2 months) is too young but it is plausible. At one month, only breeders could answer that question.

One more question, you said momma's parents were small, but unsure of the dad's. who owned the dad? Any way to find out? Or did you have nothing to do with the breeding and just came upon the pup?
