Our Toto was 1 lb. 8 oz. at 16 weeks .... she is now over 3 yrs. old! She has always been very healthy ... we followed our vets instructions to the letter and always called her if there were any questions no matter how trivial. We gave her vet formula NutriCal for several months after we brought her home [about a pea sized bit, 4 times a day]! She is a very picky eater and eats a very healthy diet. Right now she is a couch potato and over 2 lbs. overweight! Her recommended weight is no more than 3 lbs. Our biggest problem was not being afraid of her! I'll bet your baby will be fine .... enjoy her!
