| My Gia weighs 1.75 pounds at 10 weeks I took Gia to the vet today for her second shot and she weights 1.75 at 10 weeks, they want me to get her to 1.8 by next week. is it normal for pups to be this small at 10 weeks |

| Luna was 1 pound at 10 weeks, so I would say it is OK as long as she looks fine... Now, at 9 months she is 4 pounds...

| wow, I forgot to ask the lady how much Kacee weighed today so I called hubby to bring ups scales from work, I didnt tell him why. but those are accurate scales and if he dont forget I will weigh her this evening. If he forgets guess it will be monday at the vet. Your puppy sound so tiny. I know it has to be pretty.

| Oh okay, because the vet mad me kind of nervous because she's like "Gia needs to be at least 1.8 by next week" so I was kind of concerned. My fiancé went to the doctor with Gia and didn't ask the questions he should have asked (MEN ) I wasn't able to go because I had another appointment... Also how many shotd do they need to get total? |

| Weight would be dependant on the weight she was when she was born. I just took Tia to the vet yesterday and she weighs 1.5 pounds at 15 weeks and the vet thought she was doing fine. At 11 weeks she was 1 pound 1 ounce so she gained 7 ounces in 4 weeks which he thought was good for her. There is a puppy growth chart at the beginning of the general discussion threads. I will let you know approx. how much she should gain per week. As for shots, they get 3 sets ( including rabies if necessary or wanted). Then they need their shots annually after that,

Kona had her first shot around 7 weeks, so my vet advised that she get a total of 4 shots since she was so young when she got her first shot. | |

Peeka Boo I See You! Donating Member | Peeka and Boo are 2 lbs at 11 weeks and 9 weeks they were about 1.9 lbs so it sounds about right it does depend on how big they were at birth to good luck!
