Yorkie Size!

[atlantis1982]

There is no guarantee on size. My Sunny's mom was 8lbs; his father 4 lbs. The breeder therefore guessed he would be in the 6lb range. He's actually 9lbs (and was the largest in his litter of 6). Other factors can come in to play, like appetite (of which Sunny has an extremely healthy one!)

I thought the same as well but she assured me that because she is so attatched to me that she runs the risk of stressing & not feeding them if I'm not around. She lives 3 houses down though!

Callie was also the biggest of her litter. She was the only one above 5lbs. She is double the size of her father & mother. I'm grateful for her bigger size. I'm hoping my pup isn't smaller than 6lbs. Thank you!!

Good luck with your Callie and her pups. I an glad your grandmother lives so close. know when I first got my Teasell I considered breeding but decided it was not the right thing for me and Teasell who is now almost 8 years old. Please let us know how it all comes out and maybe pictures also. I love puppy pics.

Maybe she will come over when it's time. Don't be scared about being paranoid when she is getting close if something seems off or weird even if your not sure why you need to ask her or a vet. This wasn't don't on her first heat right?
