I think Loverodream is right on. I have a less than 4# pup who is very active (does agility as a matter of fact) with no problems. She was a confirmation dog when I got here but her breeder who was showing her was starting to feel she was not going to make the required minimum 5# in order to breed standard she requires for breeding her champions. I had had a 3.5 pound Yorkies previously who live to be 11 years old, so feeling like I had the "tinyYorkie" thinking I got to have Cali. I am very cautious with her of course, but she loves agility and we do that, but she does not jump off beds or high sofas - running and water is what she loves and we do lots of that!
Long way of saying, this is a very well bred dog who is a perfect example of the breed and has excellent health to go with the confirmation. She just happens to be small!
