He had a growth spurt after he was neutered and weights around 9 pounds now at 9 months. Saydee started out tiny, grew fast, but now at 5 months she seems to be slowing way down. She has been around 5 pounds now for over a month. I also keep height and length records. Neither have grown much since before Christmas. I believe each yorkie is different and you just can't know until they are done.

i just love rily and jacksons face and color so cute they look like brothers
anyone agree?

well i was told when i first came on YT, you really cant go by the parents size all the time it would be the complete bloodline, and the fact
that yorkies, use to be on the bigger size , its easy to get a bigger yorkie,
out of a litter just like when you get a smaller one, even if both parents are on the smaller size, my coby looked like he was heading to be on the bigger size, at first but no he's pretty tiny still,and now that hes going on 7 months end of this month, he still looks supper tiny, and i kinder now wish he would get bigger when hes full grown because people are so easy to step on him and i get so for nervous , when i am out because of his small bones and body even though his getting longer hes still small.

Thanks. I agree. I love reading about and seeing pictures of Jackson. He is one of the YT "celebrities"

All yorkies are gorgeous regardless of their size. "Big or Small...I

them all."

Aw, Jackson is blushing! Celebrity? I don't know about THAT! I do think Jackson and Rily are very similar! Besides coloring, they seem to have a similar build and face.

some yorkies are bigger! Nothing to worry about....

If he is a puppy I deff. would NOT cut back on his food. He is growing and needs his nutrition. I really like the larger Yorkies--- more to love

I say that all the time.... I swear I have written like 4 posts today on threads similar to this one saying that I wish my little ones were a bit bigger. I really do though

And behavior.

I'm just not very good with a camera and can't catch Rily in action like you do Jackson.
