You never can tell.... I got Zoe at just under 5 mths and she was already 6 lbs.... now at 9 mths., she is at 6 1/2 lbs. So Nina may stay small. I LOVE this thread! It's so great to see that all of the bigger yorkies are exactly the same cuteness as the smaller ones!! I wouldn't mind if Zoe got even bigger... she will always be just as cute :)

my chubbies!!
 

here are my chubbies! Tucker weighs 11 and Tripp weighs 9. they just got their summer puppy cuts today and look super skinny now! lol

Little Lucy
 

When we got Lucy she was only 6 very skinny little pounds. No muscle mass or anything at all. The last time we weighed her, she was nearly 12 pounds !!! We think she is getting to be a little Hubba Chubba, but we love her anyway. We did find out that the lady we got her from (a puppy mill rescue) also raised Silkie Terriers, so we have a suspision that she may be a Silkie instead of a Yorkie, or a mix of both. She is getting cuter and funnier by the day.

This pic was taken after her bath and brushout. The topknot is not quite long enough to put up proper so I used one of those tiny claw thingies. A spin in the recliner and she had a new do.

What a cutie! She looks all yorkie to me! :)

Those are great, that 2nd one should be on a calendar hanging on MY fridge. and the third one, those are great pictures. :thumbup: :D

Tubby looks like my Sugar{ colors} except she is 6 lbs. He is beautiful!

Lucy is beautiful - such a happy and alert little face. I just love the 'meat and potatoes' yorkies! :) And yes, I agree that she looks like all yorkie.

How lucky you are to have such beautiful yorkie.

That picture is so cute, and it is so cool that you have all different sizes.

Lucy has been the best little dog. After years of having only German Shepherds, you kinda get used to their dignified attitude. She has been a great companion to Griff, my old guy. He just turned 11 which is pretty old for a GSD, but Lucy seems to perk him up. You would think he would get annoyed with her antics, but mostly acts like a protective old Grampa. He also wants more attention. If she is getting love, he will push right through and take his turn, wether you want him to or not. So there is this manuever of dogs both trying to be petted at the same time. So very funny.

I was a bit concerned with how she would turn out, since she had such a bad start. I have talked to a gal that got two from this very same situation, and both of hers are afraid of men and possible fear biters. So very sad. But Lucy seems to have adjusted quite well. The weight does not really concern me (yet) since she started out so thin. She actually seems about right for her frame. At six pounds she was so skinny, you could feel her backbone and ribs. But now, she is all muscle. She is so full of energy and personality, and kisses. Not to mention such a goofy personality. And also seems to be quite smart. She will do most anything for a treat. Maybe that is why she is a little hubba chubba. Oh well, as long as she is healthy, she is fine. She is much more snuggly with a bit of meat on her bones.

I love reading all about your big pups. I thought I was the only one with an extra large Yorkie. My Buddy is 2yrs old and he is 13.5lbs. People have stopped me to say they have never seen such a large Yorkie, me either I say back and laugh. He constantly makes me laugh and gives nothing but love, love, love.

10 lb Yorkie
 

Hi,
My Lexy is 10 lbs of love
Here she is::thumbup:

here is kirby 8 lbs and muffy (yorkie-poo) 8lbs

My gurls got you all beat!
 

My gurls are the biggest, purebred yorkies you ever saw. Well, Chewy is anyway. She is 18 lbs!
Sierra is only 11 pounds! You can see their pics in my avatar. They are sisters and toooo cute!

:p

this is my cuddly snuggle bug
 

This is my baby Topher, who's now 9.8lbs according to his weigh-in at the vet when he was neutered a week ago. He's 7 months old, now.

I can't imagine a teeny tiny yorkie...I've never seen one close up. To me, this little guy is tiny! He still can't jump up on furniture (or off) and he's still easily stepped on (though we try so hard not to!).

We love him dearly and are glad that he's a 'sturdy' healthy pup.:)

And I was beginning to think that my evil wee was a whopper at 6.5 lbs and dougal was just a freakish throwback at 16.5lbs. :thumbup:

It's great to see all these other whopper pups :tounge6: like my dougal beast.

I agree whopper pups are the best for super hugs. :wub: :wub: :wub:

Dougal was the largest of his litter and is a clear kg (2.2lbs) heavier than his dad was. And he's not a chubby bubby cos I've been working on getting his weight down for agility. (he put on a kg after being neutered - he's a comfort eater like his mum lol!)

I think he's quite handsome and muscly. He has still got his tail and I wouldn't have it any other way - someone was commenting about tails earlier.

I took the dougal baby to the beach today so here are some pics of him with a golden retriever we met at the beach to give some idea of perspective.

I don't really care what size my babies are as long as they are healthy. Although I am tempted to get dougal's NZKC papers laminated carry them with me where ever I go cos everyone we meet is incredulous that he's a yorkie - especially since he got his groovy schnauzer hair do!

Let's keep this thread going - yay for plus size puppies! :thumbup: :thumbup:

Aww I love Sophie, she is gorgeous she is beautiful colours! A real blonde bombshell! I better not show my boys ;)

I'm so glad to see this thread is staying alive!

He look just like my Buddy who is 13.5lbs. Don't you just love the size?

Prefer the bigger yorkies
 

This is my first post on YT and I'm so happy to see this thread. My Yorkie is a retired breeder and is about 16 lbs. She is beautiful and so laid back. I live close to the breeder who has both large and small registered yorkies, and I have found that the larger ones are calmer with less excitable temperaments. They don't seem to bark at everything either. After reading a lot of threads on YT for the past few weeks, I was beginning to think that the majority of YT'rs were so standard conscious that there was no room for the rest of us. That's great for those who are interested in showing, but most are not.Glad to see all of you who appreciate the "bigger" yorkies. By the way, Kourtney has had beautiful pups and they are all in loving homes with very happy owners who wanted larger "teapots".

Here is my big guy. About 2 weeks ago I weighed him and he is 9.6 lbs. :eek: He is a little over a year old.

Attachment 52069My tater tot went to the vet today, he weighed in at 13.5 pounds !! He just turned 2 last month.:D

Hey girls, I got a big one and a little one too! Teddy is around 4 to 5 lbs...Haven't weighed him in a while and Tiffy was just weighed @ the vet a few Saturdays age and weighed 11.6 lbs. and I 'bout fell off my chair! I knew she was bigger yeah she was pregnant then but I bet she is between 9 to 10 lbs now. When I was trying to train her to walk with a harness on oh man U should of seen her pulling me...Really! See when we got Teddy @ 6 weeks old he just weighed 1 & 1/2 lbs...Well we got Tiffy @ around 2 months old (Tiffy is 2 months older then Teddy!) she weighed 3 lbs...So I kinda thought oh my she's gonna be big...I ask the lady we brought her off of...U sure she isn't a baby wrotwhiler? She had NO looks like Teddy..She had flat silky hair, not curly like Teddy, big all over! But let me tell U Teddy can still get her when they play together..He nails her at her thighs!! LOL! Really he does...It's cute to see her fall to the ground of a dog so little...Man it makes her mad when he does it. Another thing I've noticed...Is that most of the bigger dogs shown here has the same kind of hair that Tiffy has...NOW please tell me is Tiffy wirey/curly or Silky??? I have NO idea really...He papers says she is blue and gold...What her seller marked... Her skin looks blue...Well now that Teddy is older his skin...If U pull his hair back looks blue too...But I put on his papers that he was black and tan....U all are gonna beat me for this...But I'm just now sending in for their papers...I know, I know! I should of already done it but I just didn't...Kill me now or later! Sorry...I hope we can get them...I have to send them off in the mail (Haven't yet...Keep telling husband everyday I need a check to get them their papers, he keeps forgetting it!) for it and I know that will take time...To be truthful...I never in a million years dreamed Tiffy would get pregnant by Teddy...He was so short compared to her...Oh he tried but I kept sayin' he didn't get her pregnant and the whole time my husband kept saying she is gonna have puppies!!!!!! Well they both fooled me...This is our 1st ever batch of babies and I don't know if I can let them go...I'm so attached now... I come in and just watch them all the time...It's so sweet how they move, whine, eat cuddle each other and mommy...I love each of them to peices! Well here I am...Just call me WINDY!!! I get on this fourm I can't get off! I'm off work tomorrow so I'm gonna try to get something going with more photos...And I have names for all our babies now... Oh I know the new owners will change them, but we could do scrapbooking without names! Hugs and I love all the bigger and yes the tiny and inbetween Yorkees! Hugs, Lee

I loved this thread and loved looking at all the pictures.

Jasmine is small at 5 lbs, but we kept my granddaughter Yorkie, Murphy for several months. He is back with Tori, his mama now and they are both very happy to be together again. When she first got Murhpy, we wondered if he was all Yorkie. His hair was very short and kind of wiry feeling. His ears wouldn't stand up and he was a lot bigger.

Well you should see him now at 10 months. She brought him over to visit my two last night. His hair has really grown and is getting really thick (much thicker than Jasmine's) He's more the reddish and black color. His ears are up. (Not that it matters, I think the floppy ears are cute but Tori wanted them up) He is getting beautiful. He is bigger though. She hasn't weighed him but I would guess he is at least 10 lbs. She said people are always saying "that is the biggest Yorkie, I've ever seen" I told Tori to come to this site and look at the pictures.
He is a beautiful Yorkie and definitely full blood and he has a beautiful sweet personality. Why don't people realize a 10 lb dog is not a big dog.

My Westie at 25 lbs is bigger than most Westie's but he's gorgeous and I love him so who cares.

Here are more recent pictures of my teapots:

PK- 8 months old, 10 lbs, 14 inches long

Tim- 27 years old, 198 lbs, 6 feet 2 inches tall

LOL Natalie. That is hilarious. I am sure your husband will appreciate that!!!
They are both cute!

Baxter on the left - 12 lbs.
Snickers on the right - 9 lbs.
You can really see the difference in size when they're nose to nose. :)

Here is Lucy Loo, aka Licky Loo. She is 11 lbs with curly hair! She is so cute!

I have the world record for the biggest yorkie. My husband's grandparents Yorkie is 22 pounds!!!!!!!!! And he comes from the same dad as my baby, Malibu who is about 6 pounds. It's crazy...he's not just big though-he's fat! Sorry I don't have a pic.
