hi, yorkies are considered adult around 1 year of age but some do continue to grow some and change till 1 yr 1/2 |
It has been my experience, most reach their adult size between 8 months-1 year of age...their colors may not set until as long as 3-3.5 years old. Of course, like everything, you always have "outliers"..... |
I didn't know she will still grow after she adult age. |
They say human males stop growing at 25-26 years of age, and human women at 21. Yet, we're considered adults at 18. Go figure! :) |
I thought the hair color stop changing after she turn 1 year. I didn't know that it goes 3 3.5 years. so she might have more silver then what she got now by the time she almost 4 years of age. I am learning something new everyday about yorkie. so I know what kind of dog food to get next month when she turn 1 the adult when she done with the puppy one. |
I didn't know that either just that we are adult when we are 18 but I didn't know that we still go after that age. |

Ike the others have said, there might be a general guideline, but each yorkie is different. Some have growth spurts when they're 2 (I think my friend's pup Missy did) and some don't finish changing color according to plan either. My Kaji baby will be 4 years old next month and he's still changing some of his puppy black color for a rich gold on his head. I guess some yorkies refuse to follow the rules. :p |
oh yeah I didn't know all this I am short too and it didn't seem like I grow any in high school either. but I was just wanted to know more about when they turn adult I thought it was a 1 year. so I know if she still need the puppy one for her body or the adult one. so she might get bigger then what she is even when she is 4 years old and change color I will keep a look out for that. |
Um.... As far as food goes, I can only speak from my limited experience. Kaji came home at 12 months. I've been feeding him the adult formula foods since then. Maybe this would be a good question to call and ask your vet. |
yeah I never thought about asking the vet that one. I thought when a 1 year thats when when they do get the adult one |

For food, you should be okay to switch to adult kibble at around one year. Physcial maturing, the muscular density and strength, can continue to 2 2.5yrs old for Yorkies. Mentally, pups probably don't have a matured mindset, until may 2.5 - 3 yrs old. And some never get mature ... :D:D |
I didn't know that they have all stage of life food out there. but I will check into that one to see if the kind that she is on has it. I just might wait till she a year to changer or if she get done with the bag that she on before she turn 1 year old. |
I didn't know that some may never mature I thought they would mature by the time they are 2 years of age. but then I could be wrong about that. I heard that from the trainer that we went to but my puppy still not doing what she should be doing only when she want to do it. |
