Teapot Yorkie owners... do you dress up your teapot babies? Just curious as I tend to see mostly the babies that are smaller all dressed up. If you have any pics of your teapots all dressed up, I'd love to see them. :D I'm going to be ordering my first harness dress for Sophie soon. She's only 5.5 lbs now, but she's still got growing to do.:aimeeyork |
How old is your Sophie? Our little one was 4.6 pounds at 13 weeks. She is 14 1/2 weeks and close to 5 pounds, I'm sure. And, yes, we dress her up. That's part of the fun in owning a Yorkie, IMO. I need to take some new pictures and post them. |
Sophie will be 19 weeks on Monday. I just weighed her yesterday and she was exactly 5lbs 8 oz. Now, Chewy (her brother, same age, same litter) weighed 6lbs. 7 oz! He's a chunk!:animal36 But he's built much bigger than Sophie is. If they continue to grow like they have been for the first 4.5 months of thier lives, I figure Sophie to be at least 7.5-8 lbs & Chewy to be 9-10 lbs. But that's just my estimate. Their mom and dad were both on the larger side (I'd guess around 7-9 lbs). |
Bear is 24 weeks and only 3lbs 10oz... based on this do you think he'll stay pretty small? I love dressing him in "manly" outfits (at least thats all daddy will allow) He has his jerseys and hooded sweatshirts and sweaters (pics in an album on my profile). I think it would be fun to get a girl and have her wear little dresses. :animal-pa |
My Teapot is Boo and DH is pretty adamant...no clothes. I'll put bandana's on him tho. I think DH is scared I'll buy him and Boo matching shirts to wear. :lol tears |
How do you weigh your pups. I could never get Millie to stay on the scales long enough! |

Hi, I have a little girl who is 22 weeks old today and she weighs exactly 2lbs. She wears, at least, a bow everyday. She also wears cute shirts and jackets. I'm not big on the dresses...or maybe I just haven't found the right one. Today she wore a pink shirt that has a big pink bow with white polkadots on it and tulle that kind of look like angel wings and a bow in her hair that matched. I thought she was adorable! I did get her a super cute harness and leash but she has not worn them yet. I weigh her with kitchen scales (non-digital) and at the vets they use a digital scale. I see all these weights people are giving...any guess on how big my girl might get? She seems smaller than the Yorkies mentioned. When do they stop growing? Thanks, |
Tea cups Tea cups do not wiegh more than 3lbs as adults. Sophie will be healthier and more resiliant than a tea cup she sounds wonderful! |
Corrine Parrott's post makes me think teacups and teapots are not the same thing? I'm new so I don't really know all the lingo. If a teapot is not a smaller sized Yorkie then what does it mean? :confused: Forgive the newbie!!! |
YorkieMom- teapots are what we call our "larger than standard" yorkies. :p It's not a technical term, just a cute nickname...I actually never heard about it until I joined here. About weighing my pups, I use my digital postal scale that I have. It's tricky to get them to stay still long enought, but it gives a very accurate weight. |
Jackson is 13 pounds at almost 6 months old. He's never been dressed up! lol. I tried when I first got him, he hated it, so I gave up :) |
Sammy my Teapot Papillion weighs 15 + pounds. He wears clothes just like his 7 lb. Yorkie Brother Baron does. They both get new collars @ the same time too. :D |
Jackson sounds too funny! I doubt if Chewy would wear anything either...but I'd love to at least try a cute little harness vest on him. DH agreed to either a camo one or a Tennessee Vols one. :shade: I want to wait until he's a little older & hopefully through growing! He's gonna be a big boy! I just placed my order for Sophie's ruffled name harness from a fellow YT'er. It'll be her first "outfit". I can't wait to share pics when we get it! :aimeeyork I just hope she likes to wear it...she doesn't mind wearing a bow, so hopefully she'll do fine. Chewy's the one that rips her bow out of her hair! :rolleyes: I am glad to see other teapots wearing clothes, though. I was beginning to feel a little out of place... I love the fact that my babies are going to be "big" and I still want to dress them up; well at least dress Sophie up...the only clothes DH said Chewy could wear is either the harness mentioned above or a Vols t-shirt this football season. :grin2: |
