| Sounds like he'll end up about the size of my boyz which is 4 pounds and a few ounces. You can get a good 'guess' by doubling their weight at 12 weeks. |

Phantom Queen Morrigan Donating Member | mine was 1lb 15oz when i took her home at 13 weeks. She is now 4lbs 10oz give or take a meal/pee/poop. so i'm guessing yours will between 4 and 5lbs

| My guess would about 5 to 6lbs. I too, heard about doubling their weight at 12 weeks, but then add 1 more lb. That's what my yorkie books say too. This way worked for guessing Katie's weight.
