I wouldn't expect him to be putting on too much weight after the puppy growth stages... after all, he is a Yorkie. Maybe a little more weight after he's neutered, but not all that much.
Colby just turned 28 weeks this past Thursday. We brought him home at 12 weeks old at 3.5 lbs and he was 3.8 lbs yesterday. That is why they are so worried I think, and they said his kidneys felt really small. he is long and built big but just won't put on weight. I feed him Fromm. I guess now we just wait on the results. He was my pup I got with Swimmers legs, and he has always been lazier than the other, but when I voiced my concerns before to my vet they said he may just be lazy not to worry. This new vet yesterday is who was worried and decided to do test.
