Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | That's a pretty good size but if he's healthy - why worry about what he'll weigh ? When I got my girls I had pre-concived notions about yorkies, but after learning so much from sites like this one - I'm just grateful they are happy and healthy - Whatever size he'll be... is what he's going to be. |

| muffie was 4 lbs at 16 weeks and now is 8lbs but she is the same size of kirby who was over 3lbs at 16 weeks and now is 5.9 lbs (just took him to the vet so i know his exact weight). it is amazing, they are both the same size but a 3 lb difference.

| i have to admit, when i wanted a yorkie, i had a teacup in mind. but now that i have my baby teddy, i couldent imagine having any other. he is beautiful in my eyes. i was just wondering. thanks you guys! EDITED: omg... it just hit me. i wonder if i feed him a little too much.. maybe??? i give him 3 tablespoons 3x a day. so at the end of the day he eats 9 tablespoons of Royal Canin. is this too much??

but to tell you the truth - even when I got my girls I never even payed attention to their weight - only their MEASUREMENTS for clothes lol I can't even tell you what they weigh right now - I can guess ....but really don't know and don't care... but as long as you love him - that IS all that counts. Congratulations on your new yorkie....he's a baby still but you're in for alot of fun with him. | |

Luvs Lulu Donating Member | My Lex i s 9.5 lbs at a year and I have to say you wouldn't know it to look at it. He has very heavy bones. That can be the case with your baby. The thing is that sometimes you can get a small baby but they can catch a growth spurt. Some can start big and just not continue to grow so it's always hard to truly figure what you will get. I never thought that Lex was going to be that heavy. I was shocked when the vet told me his weight. I feed him totally organic food and rarely feed table food to him. So his weight was a suprise to me. Either way we love them anyhow. Lex has graduated to being my tpot yorkie.

| I think that is pretty close to what Maddie weighed at that time and she is 7 pounds full grown. To me that's not big...heck...my skin babies each weighed a bit over 7 pounds when they were born and they sure seemed tiny to me!
