Did you actually see the parents? Did they look much bigger than the puppy? Just curious since the puppy is already 3 lbs and the parents are 4-5 lbs they shouldn't look much bigger than the puppy. My female yorkie weighs 6 lbs now at 19 months old and I was told both parents were 4.5 lbs. I didn't know anything about yorkies at the time and had no idea what a 4 or 5 lb dog looked like but looking back I would say they were around the same size she is now, which is plenty small as far as I am concerned. I think people tend to round down when it comes to yorkie weight. Unless you really feel the need for a tiny 4 lb yorkie I wouldn't worry about it too much. All the yorkie owners with 8 or 10 lb yorkies seem to be just as happy as the owners of the 4 pounders. Congrats on your new baby. We would all love to see pics. I'm sure she is adorable!
