| 15 pound Yorkie So, Tucker is growing like a weed. I decided today to see how much he weighs. The way I do it is I stand on the scale and hold him in my arms. Then I put him down and weigh myself and subtract. Well, when I saw what I weighed holding him I told him he'd better way 15 pounds! Unfortunately, it's all me. He is 6 and a half pounds! (at 4 months old he now weighs as much as his mother and 3 pounds more than his father!) I think he's trying to catch up to our Lab, who is around 70 or 75 pounds.

| As cute as Tucker is, he could weigh a hundred pounds and it wouldn't distract in the least! He's such a doll baby!

| LOL I do the same. Sometimes when I want to just weigh myself I'll hold Sango in my arms, and tell myself that extra 20lbs is all her not me!

| I can't even read Gus's weight on our scale. He is too small to even read. Even when I hold him it really doesnt move. But then again our scale is very old. But not too old to read every lb I gain. Grrrrrrrrr!!!!!! It doesn't matter if Tucker 2 lbs or 20 lbs with a face like his, he is and will always be so darn cute!

| Deegan's a big boy too. 5 lbs at 4.5 months old. His parent weighed 4 and 5 lbs. What's up with the overgrowing??? But he's still my babyboy!

| That is how I weigh Bell, as she is too large for the baby scale.

| Ha-ha! And you're hoping he doesn't catch up to Rusty, because he's a lap dog!

| I was doing it wrong, how about you? This thread goes great with the e-mail I recieved today. It's too funny. How to weigh yourself and get the most accurate result. I can't believe I was doing it wrong all these years. We must get the word out. |

Yorkie Lover Donating Member | LOL...this is all too funny...I don't even have a scale in my house...I would just rather not know at all!!!
