Lol I know what you mean! Jackson kept growing and growing...

From about 6 months to a year, he was always a steady 12lbs. Then all the sudden, I remember we had a vet visit around 1 1/2 years old maybe, and the scale read nearly 16lbs. I thought there was NO way. Tried another scale, same thing. So odd... because his harnesses all still fit, and such, and he was always in good shape so I know he wasn't over-weight. I think a lot of his was muscle and still just filling out.

By 2 1/2, the scale was reading 17.5lbs. And that's about where he stays. So heres my almost 18lb Mr Muscle man Yorkie at nearly 5yrs old!!!
