At four months my boy was 4.8 lbs. Almost five months now and I have to weigh him again. But the bigger the better. I felt bad because the last time I discussed size on YT I got the impression that mine was going to be too big, off the charts:rolleyes: . Anyway, I will love him no matter what. |

My Mugzy just got weighed on Monday, and he was 3.4 pounds (12/15/06 birthday). I wouldn't mind if he got bigger, but then again, I wouldn't mind if he stayed the same! He is my baby:D |
Welcome to YT. You've definitely come to the right place for Yorkie info! My guy is 14 pounds -- twice the size my first Yorkie ever reached. Don't worry about it. I always thought Ozzie was a freak of nature, until I found YT. Not only are there other Yorkies around his size, some are even bigger. And ignore people in public who may ask you stupid questions (Are you SURE he's a Yorkie? is chief among them) or make snide remarks about him being bigger. Just feel lucky to have all the benefits of the breed inside a heartier -- though still small -- body.:D |
My Biggie is 5.5 Months and he weighs 6.8 Pounds. According to the breeder, He was supposed to be between 4 and 6 pounds as his Mom is 6 pounds and his Dad is 3 pounds I love him to pieces and don't care how big he is as long as he is healthy. |
Yorkies come in all shapes and sizes. My yorkies are aroune 3.5lbs, my sister's yorkie is 6lbs, my parent's yorkie is 12lbs, my grandparents yorkie is 10lbs and my aunt's yorkie is 8lbs. So, our family is proof that they are all over the charts! |
I have 2 teapots: Shooter weighs 13.5 lbs 1-1/2 yrs. and Maggie 12 lbs. 1 year old. When we got Maggie we wanted another bigger yorkie. |
size of Yorkie: DUnks is 13 lbs! 2 Attachment(s) When ew got Dunks of Christmas 2006, he weighed I believe 5 pounds and he was 4 months then. The breeder told us that he might be at around 8-10 lbs max. (he's not a mix either, he's a purebred Yorkie, we got his AKC papers) Now, he is 11 months old and when we weighed him at the Vet last week, he weighed in at a whopping 13 pounds!!! :confused: This whole time I thought he was 9 pounds coz I weighed him a week before that. BUT, I would not want it any other way though! I love my big yorkie!! He's adorable, very playful and very affectionate. I love how he is bigger than the smaller yorkies coz I can rough play with him and there is more to cuddle!!! :D |
AMEN TO THAT. It's so irritating when people ask if your dog is really a Yorkie. Coz they would ask, "is your dog a Yorkie?" and then of course you answer is YES then they'll ask "are you sure?" oh people sometimes... LoL |
Teapots Rule!!!! Otis is 3yrs old and weighs 9 pounds. He is long and lean (long legs). Welcome to yorkietalk!! We like em big and we like em small!! |
Summerlin weighs 6 1/2 lbs. The woman she came from said she would be 6 lbs max, but I really wish she would get just a little bigger. I was always so afraid she would get hurt when she was smaller. I have two skin boys who were always supervised with her, but.... :rolleyes: Since she has gotten bigger, although she is not as big as some, I am more comfortable with them holding and playing with her. |
There are lots of bigger yorkies! My little girl is about 2.6 lbs at 4 months so she's "expected" to top out at 4.... but I looooove the bigger babies.. they are so sweet looking and have tons of that gorgeous yorkie hair!! |
Teapots How was the name for a bigger Yorkie derived? |

The tiny yorkies are called tea cup because they are about the size of a tea cup. The bigger yorkies are called teapot because they are bigger than a tea cup. I think it is just a cute play on words......... so to speak.:) |
