Starsky is at 10lbs and I wouldn't trade him for the world. We were told he would be around 6 to 7 lbs and he kept growing. He is so friendly and loveable and very active. Shylah is very small, a little over 3 lbs and she is very shy and timid and I sometimes wonder if size matters.

I have a 15 LB and a 5 LB. Duncan is my teapot and talk about smart and a personality that will not quit. I love both of them and would not trade either one of them for the world.

I have just purchased a male yorkie. He is 8 weeks old and weighs about 2lbs. I'm not sure how much he will end up weighing. I hope he's as little as the breeder told me he would be. He said between 4 and 8lbs. He is so cute and I will love him no matter what. I can't wait to see pictures of your darling. They are so cute it doesn't matter how big they are they will always be our little babies anyway. God Bless!

He'll probally be about 6-7 pounds fully grown, which is still very small for a dog, hope this helps!

I have a 12 pound boy and I adore him. He runs lightening fast sometimes...it's hard to believe he can be so light on his feet.

My Gracie is 10 months old and weighs 4.1 lbs. She was the runt of her litter and the breeder said she would probably reach about 5 lbs. I really wouldn't care how much she weighs because she is the sweetest, most precious little girl anyone could ever want. If she reached 15 or 16 lbs. it would just be more of her to love and that would be alright too.

Ginger is 12.5 lbs (although I think she's putting on her "winter weight" and might be 13)...Her ears are floppy too.

If you search "teapot" you'll find this subject has come up alot, and there are a couple of really cute threads on the bigger yorkies.

BTW, I took Ginger to a yorkie picnic this summer and was surprised by how many were her size or bigger.

They also get free babysitting and I groom her from time to time. When you trim her feet they look like puff balls! I'd like them to let her coat grow to see how it will turn out but I don't know that they will. The weird thing is it never mats! It's straight and super thick and dull because of the fluff but never mats. She's a hoot!

Your yorkies hair sounds just like my Reese, she has beautiful hair, but just so much of it

. I will be taking her to the groomers on Sunday so they can thin it out some

.I would attach a picture but I am having troble doing so, will keep trying.
