| New 14 week addition to the family! Hi all! Just want to brag a little about my new baby. I just got a 14 week old yorkie! She is lively and beautiful. From the moment I took her in my arms, she became so attached to me. I believe she will be a lap dog! YES! I bought her first T-shirt for her today. I couldn't find anything else small enough to fit her. She weighs 2.4 lbs. What is the general rule about how much she will weigh at adulthood? Her mom is 5 lbs. Her dad is 4-1/2 lbs. I will post a picture next Monday after I get her clipped. She looks a little shaggy right now. I didn't know this when I picked her up and only noticed it when I got her home that she has little or no tail! Someone clipped it too short. However, you can still see it wag when she's happy and her long hair covers it up. So, what she lacks in tail, she makes up in sweetness and beauty. My husband named her Miss Betty Boop. Her ears are floppy, but it makes her cute! |

| I am SURE she is perfect! My boy Keegan has a 'nub'...his whole butt jiggle when he's happy! Which is ...um...ALWAYS! She is a tiny tot,eh? It doesn't matter how big or small she is, you will LOVE her to distraction. (However! If I was a bettin' woman...I'd be guessin' ~5#) Floppy ears? All 3 of mine have them...it's CUTE! Ok so Clarence (see my avatar) can make one of his pop up, if he is so inclined....these little stinkers have a mind of their own! |

| It is so much fun and I laugh my head off when Miss Betty Boop wiggles her "nub" and, yes, it's ALL the time. I was looking at her papers I was given. Her dad was 5 lbs and her mom was 5-1/2 lbs. I bet she will be somewhere around that. That's really the weight I was hoping for. I went out today and bought her the cutest halloween outfit and a coat for the winter. Where I live in Texas, it doesn't seem the winters get that cold. But then again, I don't weigh 2-1/2 lbs!!! |
