How old is an adult yorkie? How can we say that a yorkie is already an adult? |

My Hutch was 16 when he passed on. He acted like a puppy until a month or so before he left us. So, if we ignored his signs of aging, I would say he was a puppy until he was 15-3/4 years old. |
I've always heard that for small dogs it is 2 years old. I'm not sure if that's true or not. |
I've always heard that for small dogs it is 2 years old. I'm not sure if that's true or not. Although they may have "puppy-like" behavior for most of their lives. Until they become quite old or sick. |
wouldn't it be at the 1 year mark? I only say that cuz thats when I was told to stop feeding puppy food and start with adult food. Hopefully somebody will confirm or correct me. good question |
I thought that they were always puppies?? Louis still acts like one anyways. :D |
None of mine have grown up yet, still waiting!:D |
Our vet said somewhere between 7 and 10 months is when we can stop feeding Rudy puppy food. So I say then. |
I read somewhere that age one in an adult, Precious is 4 years old going on puppyhood so then I guess they ARE still puppies that hasn't grown up yet lol |
well...my dogs still act like puppies, much like the way that my husband still acts like he's 12, haha. ;) I have always read that a dog is an "adult" at one year old...but I'm certain there are a lot of people feel the same about the two year mark. |
If they're ready for their de-sexing at six months old (teenager) 1 year must be adult, only problem I have is that the adult dog food is too big for George (17 months) he cant bite through it easily, so mummy breaks it up for him, he still prefers the puppy size kibble:rolleyes: |
