My Pippa is 3 lbs 8 oz at 17 mos old. I really thought she would be bigger! She's a cute little button, for sure, but she does seem more "sickly" than my other Yorkie and a constant worry on whether she's eating enough. Now that Scout is in our family and growing like a little weed (6 mos-same size as Pippa) I can really tell the difference in health and learning ability. Scout learns things a little faster, although maybe it's Pippa who's the smart one-quietly manipulating mom so she gets carried and coddled...LOL |

My smallest (2.5 lbs at 7 mos) is my healthiest and the one eats the best, is the least picky, the fiestiest, has the most energy, learnes new behaviors quickly, thinks she is the protector of everyone, etc! |
When I was trying to find homes for Zoes puppies so many people called me and the first question was always "How big will they get?" and I would tell them probably around 7lbs and they would always say "that is too big....I was hoping for something much smaller." Well one day my neighbor stopped by and wanted to see the pups and she said that she knows someone who would want one and that she would tell her about the pups. Well that person called me and after about 10 questions about the pups she asked me the usual question..."how big" and when I said at least 7 lbs she said "Great"! Needless to say they will be taking the puppy home on Christmas eve as it is a family present and I am so excited because I know that I have found the right home for him because the first question wasn't how big but it was the 10th question and her response to the answer was what I was waiting to here... |
well... When I looked for my first yorkie, I also asked about that. I asked about parents, how big was puppy at age at 12 (I didn't speak with breeders who sold their pups in 8 weeks). Yes, I wanted a small yorkie, so the size was important for me. But not the size ONLY, of course. However, I even didn't go to see puppies, who were TOO small. For instance, 1 ++ pounds at age 12 weeks. LIke I told already, 4-5 pounds I like the most :) |
