As everyone said, it really is a preference and how much you can handle. However, you won't really have a guarantee on how much your pup will weigh full grown....only a best guesstimate. Hope you find the pup of your dreams!

My lexi is 3.8 lbs and i take her everywhere, grocery store and all no one ever knows i have her in my bag. It is up to you. I wish lexi was a little bigger we thought she would be based on mom and dad but that didn't happen. She eats like a horse though.

my rocky is 3 1/2 pounds at 5 months. he was supposed to be much bigger as i have 2 boys 10 1nd 12. i take him everywhere. now i am hoping he stays under 5 lbs cause they do get a little heavy with a purse and the dog. i was afraid of getting a really tiny one cause of health concerns and because i have a house of clumsy men

you'll love whatever you end up with. see that chart on yorkies weight to get an idea of end size before you buy. i think alot of breeders lie about weightwhen you're looking for a tiny one just to charge you more.good luck, michelle
