10 week old 4 POUND puppy???? - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Two of Bell's litter weighed in pretty big. At 8 weeks one weighed 3.75 and the other (Lilly) weighed 3.5. Lilly is 4 months old and weighs around 5.5lbs now. She is shorter than her mom, but more stocky! I figure she is slowing down now and will probably be around 8lbs full grown. It doesn't make a different how big they get(unless your showing or breeding) Just as long as you love them and they are healthy!Did you ask how big mom and dad were? And if they knew how about the grandparents??

Chloe's (my sisters 13 lbs yorkie) parents were 4 and 5 lbs. which seems odd for chloe to be so big, but she is...so if you don't mind a larger yorkie, then i'm sure she would make a great pet.

I got Ramsey when he was 10weeks and he was only 2lbs but his brother was 4lbs. So it is not unusually. It's just like getting a runt out of a bunch..
You never know.

That's why I am the "Paisley pup". My 6 yr old Kip is a throw back to English dogs of the last century, commonly refered to as Clydesdale or Paisley Terriers. They were larger dogs, and Kip is 11 lbs. She was not that large at 10 wks though, just about 3 lbs. I think. Not show stock, but they are great dogs just the same.
