Teddy weighed about the same at 26 weeks and is now 3 years old and weighs 4lbs 2 oz - 4lbs 5 oz which is small but healthy weight as between 4-7.
If the puppy is healthy and bred correctly, a small puppy size means it hasn't reached its growth spurt yet as I recall Teddy put on a lot of weight between 10 months - 12 months i.e. gained more in these 2 months than he had since 12 weeks.
My advice is to not worry too much about it and see what happens. There are lots of changes these little dogs undergo during the first year and whilst some have things in common e.g. growth no 2 are alike! |
