| Very first yorkie!! Hi everyone, this is my first post, and on monday i'll be getting my first yorkie. Well she wont be 100% yorkie. Her dad is a 3.5 lb yorkie and her mom is a 9lb half yorkie/ half morkie. so that makes my puppy 1/8 maltese and the rest yorkie. Shes arriving on monday and i cant wait. She's nine weeks and weighs 3lbs. any one have any idea how much she'll weigh as an adult? No matter what i am excited about spoiling her and showing her off. any info about what to expect the first day would be great. thanks.

| Welcome to YT. It's hard to guess a full grown weight...some say double the weight at 12 weeks or triple the weight at 8 weeks for an estimate..sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. It sounds like yours will be on the larger side...probably between 9-12lbs full grown

| weight I disagree with the 9-12 lb estimate. I say 9 lbs tops if your info is correct. The dads lines have a lot of influence on puppy size |
