| If you had to guess - IF you had to guess how big my little Reese would get what would YOU guess ? At 3 months old she is 1 lb. 6 oz. In your Yorkie experience how big do you think she will get ? When do they stop growing ? I am a little concerned over how little she is........I know it may a premature concern, but will I ever be able to " hug" my Reese without squishing her ? |

| A good Guess would be close to 3lbs. That is if you follow the growth chart. Most pups reach adult size by 8mths, then fill in up to a year.

| Hard to tell. If she is chubby right now, and just very tiny she will probably be around 3 lbs. If she is underweight she may be bigger as she eats better and grows more robust |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | Cali was 1lb when I got her at 9 weeks, I have charted her growth and at 3 months she was 1.6lbs and at 4 months she was 2.20lbs and at 5 months she was 3 lbs. Now at 29 weeks she is 3.12 lbs and her growth seems to have really slowed down. She has a very tiny bone structure but I am hoping to get her up to 4 -4.5 lbs if I can get her eating better. She is too tiny right now. Sounds like Reese is Cali's size.

| Patti- The growth of Cali has been exact ( to the oz. ) of Reese so far ! What do you feed her ? I am going to switch Reese from Science Diet to something else....maybe Innova ? I want her to gain weight too. Thanks for letting me know |

| Some of your gals may stay thin until puberty. After having that first season some will fill in and gain weight. Mother natures way of changing them from a puppy to a adult. |

| Miko was under 2 lbs when he was 3 months old (he was sick when we got him though) and he's a whopping 9 lbs now, so I'm not sure what to tell you. hehe. He definitely did not follow the growth chart, but he's not overweight at ALL He's perfect weight for his frame.
