How Much Did Your Yorkie Weigh When You Got Them? - Page 3 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Our little "butterball" was 16 weeks when she came home and weighed 1 b. 8 oz.! She was a little bundle of energy and her little legs were so short that when she pooped it always smashed on her little butt!

Needless to say, until she grew a little taller, she got several baths a day [vet approved]!!

WOW! Looking at all the weight sizes, I don't think any of the charts are right. You really can't go by them at all!

Starsky weighed 2.5 lbs at 8 weeks and was only supposed to grow to 6 lbs. Ha! he is now 2 years old and weighs 10 lbs!!!

Shylah weighed 1.9 lbs at 9 weeks and she is almost 10 months old now and weighs 4.0 lbs!

I just think you never know until they stop growing. Starsky stopped around 15 months, I think.

Ninna weighted about 1.4 at 12 weeks when I got her. Tiffany weighted 1.9 when I got her at 5 months old.

Ollie was about a pound and a half, now she weighs 4 1/2
Chachi was about 2 1/2 now he weighs 5 1/2

Banjo was 1.2lbs when we got him at 8 weeks (little porker) and he s now 9lbs and hes only 18 weeks. But hes not overweight as I can still feel his ribs no problem and his backbone, but hes quite tall and a bundle of energy.
