| Thank you to EVERYONE for your replies and pics of your babies It's become apparent to me that a 6-7 pound yorkie can take on many shapes and sizes depending on a lot of variables so I feel better and don't think I'm crazy anymore. lol And thanks also goes to those who complimented my own baby! |

| Don't worry about the weight if the vet says she is healthy. Lucy is about 8 lbs and SOLID. I think her body and legs are a little long, and she is definitely muscular. Ella is much more dainty, but time will only tell... I thought maybe Lucy was overweight but she is not overeating food and we have cut back some on treats. She's just a sturdy girl...and thank GOD because she is also a tomboy. I'd be a nervous wreck if she were itty bitty.

| Jackson's a whopping 13 pounds at 6 months old but he's not overweight. He's got a good "shape" and especially when he's wet you can see how "skinny" he is. He was 6 pounds at his 12 week appointment and when I took him in at 16/17 week appt. he had went up to 8.6 pounds! but I agree- even though he's definitely bigger, he still seems small to me! this was Jackson at 6 pounds at 12 weeks old...

| When you weigh at the vets you always need to ask for them to be weighed on the cat scale. The dog scale is accurate for big dogs, but not little ones. And with the little ones a slight variation is actually a big variation. Maxwell weighed 5.6 on the dog scale and 6.2 on the cat scale. |

| Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | If you look in my album, there is a pic of Wylie and Marcel on the first day we brought Marcel home. In that pic, Marcel is 1 lb. 4 oz. and Wylie is about his usual 6-6.5 pounds.

| I have to say that my Pebbles is a 10.5 lb teapot but she is so muscular and really not that big. Of course she is nowhere near the size of a 5 lb pup but to look at her she really is not that large. Much more than my other two, they each feel differently when I pick them up.

! The size difference seems like alot, but Marcell is so tiny. 6-7 pounds is still a really little dog.

! The size difference gives something to compare to - and it does seem like a lot, but he was just a pupster then, 16 weeks old. He is now a 3 lb adult, so he's about a little less than half of a Wylie. He's about 3/8th of a Wylie.

| My girl weighed in at 6.3 lbs at the vet's (baby scale) back in February at a year old. She's currently at the same weight on my food scale. Measuring from base of neck to rump and then from rump to floor, she comes in at 11" x 11". A skinny girl but a fair sized rib area. The following pictures are all current within the past month (March/April). Her hair's growing in a bit so it hides her skinny legs well, but here's her length relative to a Wii Fit balance board in Picture #1. Her size relative to a Hide-A-Squirrel Jr. in Picture #2. Finally, in Picture #3, she's showing off her body at full stretch. |
