I picked her because she was a sweetheart. She loves to play with her siblings but she also loves to snuggle, no squirming. Her parents are about 5-6 lbs each. So if she was to be an outcast in the yorkie community it would only be because she is the runt of an otherwise normal breeding result. I am paying no more no less for her than any of her brothers or sisters. They are all valued equally and all cost the same. |
She still may grow to 5 or 6 lbs. I have one that was 12 oz at 8 weeks and she is 6 lbs now. She was the runt too. According to the weight chart she should have been 3 lbs
