Yorkie Yakker | Is my yorkie going to get any bigger? My yorkie, Guido, is now 9 months old and he is 3.5lbs. He is a very healthy and happy boy. When did your yorkie stop growing? Here's a pic of my little munchkin: http://s24.postimg.org/4tyd25ez5/IMG_2789.jpg

| My 4 girls all got a little bigger after they were spayed at 1 year. I don't know how boys compare, or when others stopped growing. He sure is cute.

| My oldest only weighed around 3 pounds when he turned 1... He is now 6 pounds. He grew late! Mack stopped growing around 9 months... Each is different just like us! By the way, welcome to Yt!

| So true. Even with 4 I find myself going nuts over puppy pictures and wanting just one more. Luckily somebody always talks me out of it, but then again..... I still do "want".

| Guido is quite the little cutie-pie! Not sure when he will stop, but Henri stopped growing at about 1 year old. I'm sure someone on here will be able to give you a better answer.

| Gracie grew quite a bit more after her first birthday. She was a very slow grower but she did grow for a long time. Once she was a year old her frame didn't really grow but she did put on more muscle and some healthy body fat. |

Yorkie Yakker | I agree. Puppies until they're about a year old tend to be a little more boney than adults. Most likely because they are so active. After a year I suppose they're muscles and body composition begin to even out.

YT 1000 Club Member | I have an Adult Male who weighs 13.5 lbs, and there are records of Yorkies which have weighed over 20 lbs. I think I'd start saving Dog Food Coupons now if I were you.

| My boy is 11 months old and has been 4 lbs and stocky since he was 6 months old, my other puppy is 3.5 lbs and 5 months old and bony so I figure he will continue filling out. |

| My female was 3.8 pounds at 8 months when she was spayed. She now weighs 5 pounds at 3 years old. My guess is your baby will fill out some more.
