Height question. Help My Max looks like he is all legs. He is 19 weeks and weighs a little over 3 lbs. he is 8 in tall. How tall can he get? After I got him groomed a couple weeks ago he looks tall and skinny. Lol his paws are very small What do you think? |
2 Attachment(s) My Barney is the same way. He has a tall, thin build. Like your Max, his features are all pretty tiny. But he finally grew into his legs and I love his look. He can run and jump like a little deer. He is almost 12 inches tall. He weighs around 5.5- 6 pounds depending on the time of day. I am wanting to buy a little basketball goal and teach him how to put the ball through the hoop. With that height, he'd be awesome :D! I look forward to seeing pictures of Max. |
Oh, was not even thinking that tall. I don't want him that tall but your Barney is very cute. How old is he? Max's Mom was short. Not sure about Dad He was 4 lbs. Ty for your help and I would post pics but I can't read instructions with my ipad. PC is down. |
Are you measuring shoulder to floor? I have 3 yorkies and the shortest is 6 in. And the other 2 are 8 in. They are all full grown. |
Yes. From floor to should. I know he is a baby but do you think he will get taller? |
1 Attachment(s) Barney is 1.5 years. I can understand your concern about the unusual height. I was worried Barney would be a little freak. He kind of is, but it's adorable. Now that he's grown, I can't believe I worried so much about it when he was younger. Here's a photo from when he was around 5 months. He was not much shorter then than he is now. He's with Anna who is around 7 inches tall. You can see the difference in the builds easily because they are wet. She is much stockier. |
I love your fur babies! When Max is wet he looks like a drowned rat. Lol |
I have the opposite problem. My yorkie is not that tall but she is BIG...only 19wks and already 6lbs. At what age do they stop growing? |
I was told they can grow up till they are 2 yrs old. |
My Dad raised coon dogs all my kid life. Plotts that he owned was about their height around 6 mos and completely grown height at one year. They are big dogs. To me a yorkie should have height at 6 mos. I read an article on web that they mature out at 10 mos They grow faster due to size as they are so small. Jmo |
My Maxwell seems to be tall, which concerned me because we did not see his parents. I believe the standard is 9 in. at shoulders and he's is; however he sems taller than other yorkies in our family. Love him as he is! |
