Mooching around the kitchen floor for scraps. He gets 1 or 2 cheerios for treats or bits of raw carrot. His mother was around 9lb and his father only 6lb. My boy I think is going to be a monster. He gets lots of exercise, we have a huge yard and take him on walks every morning. How much bigger is he going to get? should I get him tested for hyperglycemic or anything else. Should I be feeding him more or less. Input would be appreciated also some pics of what a 12 week puppy looks like. I have a suspicion that the breeder did not give me his correct age, as out of a litter of 7 there was only 3 males left when I got Banjo. |
Hi Banjo! My Minnie I could not tell you her weight it is soooo weird...she always goes from 3lb to 6lb
I was on holiday when I saw this woman out walking her Yorkie who was 5lb & she asked me how much Minnie weighed & I said the Vet said 5.5lbs she says no way..shes teeny tiny...her Yorkie actually was HUGE compared to my Minnie
So she said come on in & I will weigh her on my scale & she weighed in @ 3lb....mths later I take her for her shots & the Vet says shes 6lb
So I really dont know.....All I can say is I always trip over her
shes that small
