PHOTOS of 5lb Yorkies, anyone?

Yazmin is now 2 years old and weighs exactly 5lbs. At 5 months old, she weighed 3lbs.

I'm assuming that means he's expected to stay black on his saddle, rather than turn blue, but how does one know at such a young age?

Jada was about 5 1/2 years old in that pic and she is solid black on her saddle with gold on her head and legs.

Jack is 5.8 pounds and Izzy is about 6.5 pounds now. Izzy is on the left, Jack is on the right.

Thanks!! They are actually mother and daughter. It doesn't look like it but they are both the same size, the daughter is just sitting up making her look taller.

Katie Scarlett teeters between 4.8 and 5.2 pounds. I think it really depends if they weigh her with her harness on or not. Lol.

Close up photos of Yorkies can sometimes be misleading. I can tell you my 5 pounder reached that milestone at the age of around 14 or 15 months of age. I was thrilled when she finally got there. I was expecting a 8 to 9 pound dog and was exasperated trying to keep my tiny tot from trying to injure herself by climbing on furniture and jumping as though she had springs in her legs like a cat.

Anyway, two dogs can look to be much the same size but what is under that fur can have a lot of variance. Some have more bone mass than others wile some have more muscle or fat. Once five pound dog can be longer and taller than another as well. I really think that some of these estimates of what size your pup will be at adulthood can set an owner up for disappointment. I hope you have a wonderful relationship with your pup no matter what size it matures at.

Ha ha. I always take their harness off when vet's office weighs them. They think I'm silly, but it makes a .2 pound difference on some scales.
