Are you sure that is the puppy you picked out?? |
yep i'm positive its the pup i picked out...so it must be possible. When she was born she evidently did not get enough nutrients from her mom, and once she was left to nurse by herself she shot up in weight. I did talk to the breeder today and they said that if she gets to be a bigger yorkie - around 5 or larger, they would refund my 200 that i paid extra since she would be small....and as a reply to the other post, i did not take her until she was 8 weeks...she just nursed until 7 weeks. Her parents were both in the 4 lb range so maybe she just had an early spurt since she was nursing? maybe?
