| Bentley is 7.5-8lbs and almost 3 years. Louie is 3lbs and 20 weeks. I personally prefer them a more robust at 5.5-8 lbs range.

| My preference is right about 5.6 lbs to 6.6 lbs. More important to me is the structure, not really the weight. I don't really like a terribly leggy, not a terribly narrow Yorkie. I like mine sturdy! Ava is 3.6 pounds, 9" x 9" with a 7" neck @ 2 years (too smal) Nemo is 5.6 pounds, 10" x 11" with a 12" neck @ 7 years. Last edited by yorkieK9trainer; 05-13-2008 at 05:28 PM. Reason: didn't add age |

| does your 9lbs seem big? my bentley is 6lbs and I am looking at a new little guy and his parents are 12lbs and 7lbs. I am not really wanting a tiny guy but i like about 6lbs. I am afraid of getting him and him being really big. what do you think? |

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | It only matters what you think. People have different preferences, and at different times in your life you might like different sizes. For example, the bigger ones, 15 pounds and over are great if you have children. Comparing yorkies to most other breeds of dogs, they are all small.

| My Yorkie is 9 weeks old and 3.2 pounds. I think she is going to be a med. sized Yorkie, however, I do not know how they grow. I hope she stays med. though. I like the fact that she is so healthy and looks good for her size .Her brothers were tinier then her. I am thinking she may have been born first. |

| Kacee weighs 3.2 pounds at 7 months old. In my opinion, she is too small and I worry about her constantly. On the other hand, A.J, my schnoodle, weighs 9.5 pounds at 2 years old and I think he is the perfect size!
