Excellent point! I cannot believe that the vet thinks they're ready and the breeder is wanting to get rid of them at such a young age. Says a lot about both.

As for weight, Gracie weighed 2 lbs 3 ounces at 8 weeks. By calculations of these charts, she should be a little over 6 1/2 lbs. She is 5 1/2 lbs and is over 2 years old.

Rebel was around 3 lbs at 8 weeks. By calculations, he should have been a 9 lb boy, in fact, he weighs 4 1/2 lbs and is over a year.
