My sister and I were laughing this evening.

My little Yorkie who was supposed to be between 5 and 10 pounds - was 12 pounds at his last weigh-in and I really think he has gained a couple more pounds since then.

His mother was 12 pounds and his father was 4 1/2. He had two brothers from the same litter - one ended up 5 pounds and the other is 7.

My sister said I have the "magic touch." A little poodle/pom was given to me. She was supposed to be under 5 pounds....she ended up 26 pounds (and not fat). My Bichon was supposed to be 14 or 16 pounds and he weighs 24 pounds.

And now my little Yorkie is on his record-breaking way.

AND - none of my dogs are fat.

I can say that my Bichon and Yorkie both look like they weigh about half of what they do. The poor vet about broke his back when he lifted my Bichon. He said, "Whoa! what does this guy eat - rocks!!! I would never have expected him to be this heavy - just by looking at him."

Oh well - guess my Yorkie is just another miracle in progress at my house.

If anyone thinks their dog needs to gain a few pounds - just send them my way - And, I promise they won't be fat - they'll just be solid like a rock!

Fun fun! Carol Jean

PS: My Yorkie is 14 months old........
