Ya, I guess at this point I have a ton of other more important things to worry over like potty training, crate training, behavior training, switching to a better food, grooming, socializing, and keeping him away from germs. Ah!!! Lol

My passed 4 girls weights were one was 10 lbs, 2 were 13 lbs and my last girl was a beautiful sleek 17 lbs. My adopted boy is 12.6 lbs. I love the bigger yorkies they are sturdier and can he rough housed. I do have to admit when I see a lil 5 LB baby I flip out over them, so tiny (compared to my last 17LBer) and just too cute. But I do prefer the over standard size yorkie.

My Duncan is 18 weeks old and he is now 8 lbs. 11 oz. When I got him at 10 weeks old, he was 4 lbs.

Can anyone tell me when they usually stop growing and gaining weight?

My new foster, Cleo is a slim 13 lbs. For his size I thought he was too skinny. Vet says no, his weight is perfect. I even had him checked for worms and parasites because I was worried. He's clean! Just had him neutered so hoping he gains a little. He looks like a Yorkie giant next to my little Hannah!

Well there's the continental kennel club (which is the less reputable) and the Canada/Canadian kennel club which is more reputable. Being so far up north they might have the Canadian one? ^^;

My sweet girl is 1 yr old and almost weighs 11 lbs. Her mom was 5 lbs and her dad was only 3 lbs. I am happy she is larger because I don't worry about her as much. My pup also came with those papers and I know she is a pure breed but it doesn't matter to me, I didn't even send them in because I am not going to show her, only spoil and love her
