Question to all YT Teapots... How much did your Teapot weigh at 4 months? :scratchhe I just got home from Maggie Mae's 16 week & final round of shots vet appointment and she weighs a whopping 7.7 pounds!!:eek: I knew she was bigger than average, but the vet says she'll probably end up weighing 15 pounds. We'll love her even more, but I am wondering if that estimate stacks up to your dogs actual growth chart! She weighed 5 pounds at 12 weeks and the vet said it's normal to multiply the 12 week weight by 3! |
Chachi was about 5lbs and he is 10 lbs now |
not sure about 4 months but brownie was 4 pounds at 3 months now hes 18 pounds |
Chewie was 6 lbs. 7 ozs. at 12 weeks. He is over 15 pounds now, I just don't know how much over? He is a solid chunk and I love him totally. He is far from a pocket pal, but is a great heat pad when he sits on me! Good luck with your baby. The big ones are more to love!!! Oh! CHewie is 15 months old now. |
I always heard double the 12 week weight or triple the 8 week weight. But no matter, they are all just guesstimates -- only time will tell for sure. |
I think it varies...Max was 6lbs at 4 months but he grew slowly and is now 11lbs. Abbie was 5lbs at 3 months but she had a growth spurt within a month and grew to 7lbs at 4 months. She is now 14 lbs. The growth chart was off when predicting their weights because Max should have been around 18lbs and Abbie should have been 21 lbs according to the growth chart. |
12 weeks weight by 2 not 3.. She should be around 10lbs..;) |
Mine is about 14ish weeks and was 3lbs 12oz last sat. I think he'll be about 6-7 |
Lex was about 4 lbs if I remember correctly. He is now at 14 months old 9.5 lbs. As a baby he didn't look to be that weight when I got him. The vet was suprised when we had put him on the scale. The vet said that he has dense bones. You are definitely gonna have yourself a healthy teapot there. |
Reesie was 6 lbs at 4 months, 9 lbs at a year and now almost 11 lbs at 16 months. I think she's a perfect couch cuddler. |
Isn't the weight determined by the size of the parents? Brandi's mom weighs 5 lbs and her dad is about 7 lbs....at her 6 month visit to the vet she was 4 lbs 9 oz....I tried to weigh her with me on my home scale but that was really unsuccessful......although I do know she was less than 5 lbs and she's 9 months now |
I don't think you can ever be completely sure until they are full grown. Good luck with your little one no matter what size she ends up being!!! |
At 8 weeks, Chloe weighed 2 lbs. Now at 4 months, she weighs 4 lbs. Wow. I didn't know that some yorkies could be 15 and 20 lbs. I thought 10 was the max! |

Well, no matter what, there's definitely going to be a Super Size Yorkie to love at our house! Thanks for sharing about your babies...it's good to see that there are a lot of teapots out there!:D Ultimately, for us, I think it'll be better as we're planning on starting a family in the coming year...with little ones around, having a pup with more substance will make me feel better. Less opportunity for her to be hurt by children.:animal-pa |

Loki was 3.5 lbs at 13 weeks when we got him. He is now 2 and he is 11.5 lbs. So the formula definitely didn't work there. However, Loki has a very different body structure than many other Yorkies (which we didn't know or couldn't tell when he was 3 lbs!) He has very long legs and he has a long body. With his floppy ears about the only thing that screams Yorkie about him is his hair color. He is registered AKC and he definitely isn't a mix, he just looks like an odd shaped Yorkie. But anyway, you asked about the formula and it definitely doesn't always apply. Doctors told me I'd be really tall just based on my shoe and wrist size. I'm not petite but I'm not tall!! Just big feet! |

When I first got Siu Pao at 12 weeks old, he was 5lbs. Now at 7+ months, he is 9lbs :p |
about 4lbs |
Buddy was 6.5lbs at 14 1/2 wks when I brought him home and he continued to gain 1lb until 11mo. Today he is 13.5lbs. and the most wonderful loving pet I have ever owned. The vet said he would be around 15lbs. I had no idea they could get that big! :yorkiesar Carol & Buddy |
