J.J was just weighed in at the vet. 2.05 at almost 12 weeks, at the age of 9 weeks it was 1.65 so I guess he went through a growth spurt?

Jake is a Whopper! At just over 5 months old he is 11 pounds. I think that's a record. I'm quite surprised because his dad was 6 lbs and mom was 8 lbs. I guess he got the large gene. We couldn't love him any more no matter what his size!

txshopper73 · 08-24-2006, 02:06 PM

Gracie is over 2 and she's 5 1/2 lbs

Rebel is over a year and he's 4 1/2 lbs

This is just one comment, there are many comments as to what the size should be ... if your Yorkie is healthy .... doesn't matter what size she is (unless she looks like a St. Bernard)

Yorkies are classed in the Toy Group by both the AKC and Canadian Kennel Club. The breed standard for size only says it should be under 7 lbs. Yorkies that are over 7 lbs are still Yorkies in the Toy Group but are considered to be oversized and are usually sold for pet only under non breeding contracts. there is no minimum size in the official breed standard. However, reputable show breeders who live and breathe the breed, consider under 4 lbs to be undersized. Many Internet dog sellers will call these undersized 'teacups' There is no nomenclature for the Yorkie being called a 'teacup'. Very small is also a bigger headache for health problems, genetic problems, congenetal birth defects, hypoglycemia attacks, etc etc if you get my drift. Closer to 4 lbs for the small ones, the better chance you have a healthy one. The smaller they go from there, the less likely you will be lucky with its health. There are exceptions of course, and for those who might have one I hope you are one of the lucky ones. I don't breed for undersized or oversized, no one reputable ever would.
