I just weighed Tink and she weighs 6.2 pounds!!!! She sure doesn't seem that heavy! LOL

She was born on August 12 so she'll be 6 months old on February 12. She still has some growing to do!!

Her mom and dad were both less than 6 pounds. Guess Tink got the teapot gene somewhere...LOL

LOL! I bet she is a cutie! What do you use to weigh with? Katie Scarlett was 4 pounds right before her spay but I think she has put on a little weight. I need to weigh her to keep a check. But as long as she is healthy I don't mind how big or small she is. But I do like her current size. She's so portable. LOL. I mean, I let her walk a lot of places but when it's raining or there is a puddle, I pick her up to keep her as dry as I can and let's face it...4 pounds is easy to pick up!

Of course she's a cutie...the most beautiful Yorkie in the world

I agree with you about her portability!! So easy to scoop her up and carry her along!!

I use our digital bathroom scale. I weigh her with me and then just me and subtract for the difference.

Good thinking! I will try to do that...although I'm not forward to looking at my own weight! Tee hee! I must be a whole box of 'teapots' when weighed.

Teapots are the best. Of course, I may be slightly biased (all this is typed as my 9-pound pup sleeps in my lap)

Well, notice that I didn't include the actual weights I subtracted! LOL

I'll love her no matter what size she is! <3

I know you will love her no matter what. Full figured ladies are lovely too.

Whatever size your pup ends up is the perfect size! Funny how that works out

It's an affectionate term for the babies that are over 7 pounds

thizzlepop · 02-04-2012, 01:07 PM

How do you know how big they will be? My Sampson weighed in at 6.3 lbs (at the vet 2 weeks ago) and he was only 19 weeks then. His parents looked to be about 5 to 7lbs. When do Yorkies stop growing? I'm thinking he's going to get pretty big..
