Well, the Yorkshire Terrier standard states that 7lbs is the top weight for a Yorkie. Of course that is for show dogs but in general the Yorkie is a pretty small dog. However, there are a lot of people out there are a lot of people breeding non-standard Yorkies. It sounds like your guy is going to be a big boy. It is only a problem if your breeder promised your pup would be a certain weight. Many promise potential buyers that their pup will not be larger than 4lbs when they know very well the pup could be quite a bit larger.
I have never seen a Yorkie that was not adorable no matter what the size. |
