Thank you so much for any experience you can share. |
Well my breeding mentor told me that at 6 weeks take the weight and double it take that number again and double it again. A Puppy weighing 1 pound at 6 weeks will be 4 pounds full grown. This is her way of doing it and she's been a breeder many years too. I looked online according to the yorkie growth chart it says 32oz @ 13 weeks = 4 pounds full grown all thou it depends some yorkies can eat more than others and be on the chubbier side. My boy was meant to be 4 1/2 pounds but he dirint go according to the breeder nor the growth chart he weighs 5 1/2 pounds at 2yrs. So go figure. Congratulations on your new baby enjoy him they grow up fast.
