Average Weight? Hey I was reading up about the average weight for yorkies, and how you can tell what your yorkies weight will be....whatever Busters weight will be is going to be fine with me but just out of curiosity how true is it to double the weight at 12 weeks to find out the adult weight and what are some of your yorkies weights ???? ;) :animal36 |
Yep you take the 12 week weight and double it and it gives you an estimate of adult weight. I have two yorkies. They are 6 and 10 lbs |
My Bailey(female):aimeeyork is 5 months old and 4.2lbs. |
Max is almost 11 months old and varies bertween 6.5 to 7 lbs. Judy |
one is 8lbs she is 2 1/2 and the other is almost 6 lbs 1 1/2 and my little one is 5months at 4 1/2 lbs |
Bobbi was 3lbs at 12 weeks. He was a single born in his litter so quite nourished :D He is 7 months and weight 3lbs 14oz ;) |
Maxi is 6 years old and weighs 5 pounds. Coco is 11 weeks today ( Happy Birthday,Coco) and weighs 2.4 lbs. |
THANKYOU ! and btw Buster is 3 months at 2.5 pds :p |
I got Toby at 4 months, just under 2 pounds. He is now 3 1/2 years old and weighs a little over 6 pounds. I guess it doesn't always work, doubling the weight at 12 weeks. Maybe growth spurts happen at different times in each individual case?? :confused: |
My Yorkie is 2 lbs 4 oz at a little over 20 weeks. Unless she slows down a lot I don't think the doubling the weight at 12 weeks will ring true for her. She was 1.3 lbs (1lb 5-6 oz.) at 12 weeks |
bornnygurl, I agree that your girl will stay small. I really think that my Toby is the exception to the rule. When he came to me he appeared to have a tiny body with a huge head, out of proportion to his body. He really didn't look like a pure bred Yorkie to me. Now his body is in perfect proportion to his head. His breeder never sent me his AKC papers as promised so I guess there is a chance that he is mixed?? |

Siu Pao is 5 lbs at 12 weeks old and at 9 months currently, he is 10lbs. His weight is pretty much stable now. |
Loki was 3.5 pounds at 13 weeks. He's like 11-12 pounds at 2yrs old. But sometimes I think he is a mutant. He is 13 inches long and Sammy is 11 inches long, but he is twice as tall as her and weighs twice as much. He's definately not too big though. |
:animal36 Uma was 3.6 pounds at 16 wks. and she is still 3.6 pounds at 23 wks.:) |
I Think It Is About The Correct Way To Estimate Weight... But Can Be A Little Bit Out. Harvey Was 2 Lb At 12 Weeks And He Now Weighs 3.5 Lb At 11 Months. |
hehe that equation is not always that accurate. peanut was around 2 pounds at 12 weeks.... he's turning a year old this month and he's almost 9 pounds : ) uh huh, the breeder told me he'd be like 4 pounds hahahah. |
Give or take a few pounds You can't always tell. By her 12 wk weight Little Bit should have been 2# or a little over and at 11 months she weighs over 4#.:aimeeyork |
Lacy is 1.2 lbs at 14 weeks, she has a small head and ears and petite legs, but I hope she grows bigger so when we go on walks people stop thinking that from behind I am walking a guinna pig... Stacey and Lacy:animal-pa |

I am trying to estimate the size my little Mango will be. She was 1.8 lbs at 12 weeks. Do they have a growth spurt at some stage of thier puppyhood, and then slow down??:confused: |

Ariel is 2 lbs 2 oz at 6 1/2 months old...her weight at 12 weeks was 1 lb 8 oz. |
We must be like an episode of "Honey, I Inflated the Dog." Ozzie, who will be 10 in June, weighed less than 4 pounds at 12 weeks ... he now weighs more than 13 pounds. His "ideal weight" is a little closer to 12 but the vet doesn't classify him as obese. He is also very long and very tall -- much, much bigger framed than our first Yorkie who never exceeded 7 pounds in his 11.5 years. |
