Wow that's a big difference! My yorkies parents are similarly small, so I hope it is other causes as you say. Hormones are illegal in cattle in the UK so I will make sure to check where I get all of his treats from.
Thank you everyone for your replies so far. It's helpful to hear from other owners of our little pups.
