They didnt show 32 OZ until I believe 8 weeks I think it was. In any case, I found a different growth chart and it said she should grow to be about 10 pounds as an adult.
There is a huge difference between a Silky Terrier (not yorkie) and a silky coated yorkie. Yorkies come in all sizes, some are tiny some are teapots. You probably have a teapot. Is your pup a purebred with AKC papers?
