At What Age do Yorkies Stop Growing? Baby is 5 months and 6.5lbs. I LOVE her current size. I wanted to know if anyone knew if or how much more she will grow? And what age do they stop growing and/or gaining weight (if you don't overfeed)? Thanks!! |

My pup also weighs about 6 1/2 pounds at a little over 5 months. I can tell that he has certainly slowed down as far as his growing goes - but I'll bet he gains another pound or two before he's done. But then - who knows. I agree 6 1/2 pounds is a wonderful weight. He can get around well, up and off the furniture, and I don't have to worry about him like I did when he weighed a couple pounds less. Also, when I pick him up - it still seems like nothing is there. And man can he hold his own with my 21 pound dog - no problem there! Carol Jean |
I think most stop growing about 7 months. Chachi however grew a lb at 11 months old. |
Both my girls stopped growing at over a year old...they filled out a little too after a year...I guess it's all unique to each yorkie when they stop ? |

Princess was a year old when she stopped growing. She's almost three, and still has her puppy play in her. :) :) :) |
Cali is 8 months old and is putting on an ounce a week right now. She finally looks a little bigger not so thin. I think she will reach close to 5 lbs full grown, I hope. |
My breeder told me that toy breeds usually stop growing at 6-8months. But that also depends because there are many exceptions to the rule. Some of my friends' yorkies stopped going around that time as well. Twinkie gained most of her weight around 4-6months and is now 6months old and is gaining steadly about an ounce a week. |
My girls stopped growing around 8 months but still added a little weight as they filled out....but after a year they haven't grown at all!! |
Hello! It's my first post on this board :) I have 5.5 months old baby girl. Just yesterday I took her to the vet for her check up. The doctor weighed her and she was a little less than 3 pounds. I asked the doctor if she'll get any bigger, and the doctor replied "just a bit". I guess she'll gain another pound ? |
Hello, I'm a newbie! Although a newbie to this site...I have an adorable yorkie named Gentry. She will be 5 years old March 11, 2008. She stopped growing at about 8 months old. |
Wow! So many new members, how exciting! Welcome to YT, you're gonna love it here. |

Here's an update for you all! :D Baby is now 2 years and 3 months old and she is about 12 or 13lbs!!!!! She's long, and not fat, as she still has a slight curve on her torso, but she's probably a little overweight. And even though I asked the question about when she will stop growing, I don't remember when she did! :animal36 |
I didn't look at the date...and I was gonna say...."are you sure Baby is only 5 months old?" haha. Welcome new YTers! |
