Well, if it is triple the weight at 8 weeks, then my puppy should only reach 4.5 lbs. She was 1.5 lbs at 8 weeks and she has been 3 lbs for three weeks now. So maybe she doubled her weight and kept it and will only grow another 1 1/2 pounds. Everyone was saying though that given her weight now she would be big. So the breeder is still right on by saying she will be under 5 lbs.

Thanks!
