| My baby is 7lbs already ahh!! Hi everyone!! It's been a while since I have been on here but I'm glad to be back! So Chanel is 4 1/2 months almost 5 months and already weighs 7 lbs. the breeder told me her parents were both 5 pounds. And she was the heavier of her litter mates but I couldn't resist I fell inlove with her. How much bigger do you guys think she'll get? It doesn't matter to me I'm just curious. She doesn't look 7 lbs but yep she is lol. Well hope to see what u guys think! |

| It's really hard to say without knowing the ancestry of your pup. Did you see both parents or any of the grandparents? At four and a half months she still has some growing to do. Even if both parents were 5lbs if those dogs had larger dogs in their background they could still produce some big pups. My guess would be that your pup is going to be over 10lbs but how much over only time will tell. |

| Yea I was thinking the same thing! I saw both parents and her brother and sister where a lot smaller! I guess she was the big one and yeah maybe grandparents where bigger.. I got her because I have a little girl and I know having a bigger Yorkie would be best. But just surprised how fast she's gained weight but I guess time will tell! |

| Our Lexi was the chubby one of her litter of three. Her mom was five pounds, dad was 3. Lexi ended up 5 pounds, just like the breeder said she would be. But when we picked her up, she was chubby. 2.8 pounds, and far bigger than her brother and sister. But now I know a little bigger is better. She is a perfect size according to her vet. Little, but not too little. And she thinks and plays like she's a 12 pounder. |

| Aww, she could still fit in a purse. I carry my 5 and 7 pounder around together in a bag... It can be done! It sounds like she will get to join the teapot club!

| Well mine is 18 weeks today and last week I took her to the vet and she was 7 pounds! Wow I wonder if she will get that big! Oh well she's still a perfect fit for my family because my daughter thinks she's just a teddy she can carry around but it's getting harder for her so ha! Lol I'm very careful with her but there's no way I would of had a small Yorkie with a 3 yr old I would be so scared! Even tho there sooo cute!! Ill stick with big girl! That's what the breeder nick named her as a pup lol I should of known haha |
