Need to compare with your Help My pup she is named Bikini and she is 16 weeks. She weight 3.2 pounds or 1.45 kilo .... Did anyone had a pup around that weight at 16 weeks? How big did they grow? Also, I would love for someone who has a more than one Yorkie to put a picture and tell me the weight.... I would love to see the difference... I am just curious... I love my Bikini a lot and no matter what size she is, She will remain the best! :thumbup: :rolleyes: Also, she stinks a little :D ... should I wash her once a week or every 2 weeks? Is there a trick for the smell :) :animal36 Thanks :) |
Oatmeal shampoo is really good, and you can bathe her once a week. |
any oatmeal shampoo for humans? |

I shampoo with minksheen and condition with Pantene. I love the smell of the Minksheen. Here is a link http://www.touchofmink.com/prod_details.asp?id=15 |
My vet told me once a month.... but she will really smell :) That is why I want ot know :) |
I bathe mine once a week |
Hmmm, well - if her 12 week weight was, say, around 2.5 - 2.75 lbs - then her adult weight will probably be between 5-6 pounds. As for bathing, I think a dog's "smell" sort of determines how often to bathe. Some are a little more stinky than others. Luckily, it's a cute stink! |
I bathe mine once a week and they go to the groomers once every three to six weeks (depending how there nails and ears look) |
Mine was very close to that weight at 15 weeks. He's 11 months old now and weighs close to 6 pounds. And he'd prefer to be stinky himself. |
I think Zoe was 3 lbs 4 ounces at 16 weeks. She is now 7 months and weights 4.5 lbs. Her growth has slowed down alot in the last month or two. She has not gained at all in the last month. Although you have to remember that yorkies are like all of us, some grow at different rates than others. If you do a google search for "yorkie growth chart" you will find some charts that you can go by. Zoe followed those to the letter so it says she will be about 5.25 lbs. We shall see. :) Also, I bathe Zoe about every 4-5 days but I don't think I've ever gone more than 10 days. I've used minksheen but honestly the best results I've had were with pantene human shampoo but I'm still trying to find a better one since I read that pantene is not the best for yorkies or people. Good luck! |
I bathe Lacy once a week. Lacy was about 3.2lbs at 12 weeks and is now 7lbs so yours should be smaller - proabably 5-5.5lbs |
Thanks for all your answer... I think Bikini will have to be bathed this weekend :) The smell is quite present! It is very interesting how we get to know our Yorkies... it's like a child! |
Mindy weighed 3 lbs at 12 weeks and 4 lbs at 18 weeks. I don't think she has put on any weight since. If she has not much. She has really slowed down. |

Okay I totally managed to screw up my post above so I will repost. Remy weighted about the same at that age ,she is now nine months old and weights 5lbs. She seemed to do most of her growing early on. Eileen |
:animal36 Uma weighed 3.8 pounds at 16 weeks. She is now 12 months old and weighs 4.4 pounds. I would love to have her at 5 pounds, and she may yet reach it if she fills out a bit more. |
Kiki weighted 3.5 lbs at 16 weeks and now at 10 months she is 5.5 lbs. I think she is the perfect weight right now. http://www.dogster.com/dogs/511397 |
Wow I can see that every Yorkie have their own growth rate... it all depends on her own genetics... Anyway, I love her to death! Thanks for all the reply... She is 17 weeks and still 3.2 pounds! Will see... |
my Bruin weighed about 4lbs after 1 year then all of a sudden he took a 1.5 lb growth spurt. He is still 5.5 lbs but still looks cute |

as for weight i will reply to this tomorrow when kiele (11wks) goes to the vet. but last time at about 8weeks she was 2lbs and people on here say thats big. I mean but all dogs differ you cant go off of one dog. Skoshi weighed about 1.9 or a little less at 8weeks and hes now 7pds at almost 10 month. some peoples on here weighed 2lbs at 8weeks and stayed small and some got big. |
Yes I guess it all depends on the dog.... it's exciting to see them grow and get better at doing things.... It my first Yorkie but not the last ;) |
My Dylan weighed 2.5 lbs at 4 months. He now weighs 6.75 lbs. at 20 mths old. I guess he was a late bloomer. |
I bathe Roo once or twice a week and she usually does okay with that. I bought yorkies for dummies when we first got Roo and it says in there that it's okay to bathe her 2 times a week and i haven't noticed that she has dry skin but now out of laziness i've taken to more like once a week but her face gets really stinky! |
