...KIKI!!!! Oh my gosh!!!! She is a little butterball already! If she keeps "filling out", or if she gets fatter after being spayed, I think she would be OVERweight.

I'm wondering if anyone has an experience comparable that they could share. If a pup is already broad of frame, with plenty of meat on those bones , so you think they will stop growing earlier?
I know this is true with labs, it's 2 years of filling out, I'm not sure about this with yorkies either. I will tell you that Lucy's bones have not grown after about 6 or 7 months, the other 1 and a half pounds were just filling out.
