(5 pounds or under) you must pay at least $1200. I don't have that kind of money. I paid $500 for her.
Anyway, thank you for your input  |
I am glad that you love her regardless of her size. Judging from her size at 9 weeks, I am surprised that she got as big as she has. It is really just about impossible for a breeder to accurately predict size. I think most of the time we can give a general idea but there are always exceptions to the rules. I have also found that females seem to get that middle aged spread more so than males do, especially if they have been spayed. Your girl might not get any taller but she could gain a couple more pounds depending on her structure and how much she eats.
Anyway, I would like to welcome you to YorkieTalk and I hope you have many happy, loving years with your little girl.
