When i first got my yorkie on February 24 she weighed 2.2lbs and now 13 days later she is weighing 2.8-2.9lbs....is this growth normal? she doesn't eat very much about 1/2 a cup a day and is only 2 months old today..I tried to check the growth chart for an estimate of what her expected weight will be but there is no category for her. Can someone let me know how much her average weight may be once she is older if right now she is 2 months old and weights 2.8-2.9lbs..(her mom weight about 9-10lbs, and dad 4-5lbs).
Also i was reading someone else's post and they mentioned that there yorkie has floppy ears... my yorkie has floppy ears also, i have no intenstion of making them pointy i think she looks soooo cute with floppy ears. are all yorkies born with floppy ears and then it's just up to the individual whether they want them point or floppy?
