Yorkie Weight-info please!! My 8 week Yorkie just weighed in at 3.2lbs. The vet says she'll be 12-14lbs. She also said that there is a possibility that she has done a lot of growing recently and will slow down. This would make her more in the 8lbs range. Does that make sense???? Any thoughts or experience would be great!!!! |
You can check the Yorkie growth chart thread here: http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=16045 While not 100% accurate, it can give you a good idea of what your Yorkie's weight will be. 12 to 14 pounds seems rather big according to the chart. Their weight growth does slow quite a bit after 8 weeks. |
Big Guy I think your baby's already off that chart. Try this, weigh him at 12 weeks and multiply that weight x2. This seems to get pretty close though the males will come in at a little more. One of my litter started at 5oz. was 3 lbs. at 8 weeks, 4 lbs. at 12 weeks, and at 4 mon. is 6 lbs. (my neighbor owns her now). She'll be close to 9 lbs. grown and is gorgeous! My first yorkie weighed in at 12.5 grown and he was the best! I even know someone who has a 20 lber, you never know! :) :) |
