Is it really that much of a difference? 3 lbs or 6 lbs? I'd take a healthy 6 punder than a sickly 3 lbs baby in a heartbeat. I know there are healthy tinies out there. But just all the precautions you HAVE to take with the smaller ones are scary. Yes, you do have to be careful with a Yorkie thats only a couple lbs. But a young puppy that's a couple lbs will grow into a good weight as adult and I personally enjoy that weight more as it allows you to get out and do more things with your dog. Do you want a tiny because they're so easy to take everywhere? What if she hates being in the carrier? If weight is so important to you, you should probably give her back, before she gets attached to you...I know it's not that easy. I paid more for Pepper, I admit, as he was supposed to be tiny too (yes, I was looking for a tiny, I admit.....). But, oh well, he kept growing. He's already 5 lbs at 7 months and I stopped worrying about his weight early on, he simply stole my heart. I'm planning to have kids one day within the next few years and I would never want him to get hurt because of his small size, so grow Pepper, grow! But if you know your heart is set on the weight and nothing will change it, the pup's better off back... |
