10 week old 4 POUND puppy???? Does that sound right? I called a lady yesterday thats about 2 hrs from me. She has a 10 week old male pup and is 4 POUNDS!!!!!God, that dog is going to be huge.....does that seem right! At first she said 3 pounds but than emailed me a pic that said he weighs 4 pounds.. :confused: |
that is quite huge...however...my sister has a AKC yorkie that is getting ready to hit 13lbs. dexter weighed 1bl at one month old and gained a pound per month...and chloe (my sisters dog) at two months old weighed twice as much....so it sounds like this puppy will be a big one. chloe is very healthy and eats the same dog food as Dexter...she even eats less than he does on average. |
That is a lot, I wonder what she weighs her puppies on. hmmmmmm I would ask what the parents weigh.If she says 13 pounds, then thats maybe the weight, but if she says 5-7 something is up. :) |
That is rather large. I would ask about the parents weight |
Stewie is bigger than both of his parents. I'd bet that this puppy will be about 10lbs full grown |
Hi ytisrk27, My Charlie weighed just under 2 lbs at 2 months old. He is 2 years and 2 months old now. He kept growing during his first full year. He now weighs 12 pounds! He is not overweight at all. I always fed him really healthy, organic food and treats. His mother is 6 pounds and his father is 3 pounds!!! Weird! I know that could happen with humans, where the parents are really tall and have small kids or the parents are small and have tall kids. I think the rule of thumb with Yorkies is usually to double the weight at 3 months of age, but that wasn't true with Charlie. It sure seems that the pup you are interested in will grow up to be a big Yorkie, or as my father calls my dog, a "Stretch Yorkie". LOL Charlie was about maybe 3 pounds at 10 weeks old. Just think, there's more to love! :aimeeyork |
One of my babies weighed 2 pounds at 3 weeks....hmmm 2 pounds every three weeks....that would be 6 pounds are 9 weeks...maybe 7 pounds are 10 weeks...eek!!! |
My Thunder was 4 pounds at 10 weeks too. Now he is 7-8 pounds at 16 weeks. But he has a bit of poodle in him. |
Our Lillie weighed 3 pounds at 7 weeks. She is now 2 years 2 months and weighs 9 pounds. At one point she got up to 10 and a half pounds and our vet has her on low cal food. She would eat until she exploded if we let her! |
its not like i dont like big dogs..but Mason is alittle around 3 pounds at 4 months...i want to try and stay around the 5 pound or less ...:) |
My little guy weighed 4 lbs at 10 weeks and he weighs 5.9 lbs now and he's almost 6 months old. He was a big puppy I guess. Anyway, n o matter what they weight we love every ounce of them...don't we?? There is just more to love :) :) :) |
Yes Id say its going to be a good size as an adult. |
my lucky was 3 pounds at 8 weeks. now at 6 months he weighs around 8 pounds. breeder said his mom was 5 pounds and his dad was 3 1/2 pounds go figure. i will admit i wanted a smaller yorkie. but i have to be careful not to step on him, and still catch myself picking him up carefully trying not to hurt him. i think now that he's the perfect size for me. he may not fit in a tiny bag but he fits perfect on my lap Ü. |
He is going to be a biggie, but like someone said We love all Yorkies of any size. |
When Yorkies came to America the were 15-20lb dogs. They were bred down to a smaller size but that big gene reappears every now and again. It doesn't matter what size they are, they are all adorable. |
