| Thinking of selling my new pup. I bought a 9 week old yorkie last week and just now found out he will be 10 pds. He is now 4.5 pds. I wanted a 5 pd yourkie or smaller. I am thinking of selling or trading for smaller. He is so cute very hard for me to do this.He is starting to go out side well to. great pup. Does any one have a 10 pd that I can see what he will look like? I wish I found this site before I bought him. I am in MI |

| Awwwwwwwe....................... My Dinkey is 7 or 8 pounds and just a little over a year old..........Even If he reaches 18 pounds, I would never never get rid of him. He is a doll, cute personality, a precious soul.........he's just a little chunk! I love him dearly. Your baby loves you too. You are his one and only MOM.......

| All i would say is i wanted a small yorkie and my Pippa ended up being 8lb (I thought she would be 5 - 6 lb) she is still small but heavy. But i couldn't care less now, she is my best friend and i never got her to breed or show so it doesn't matter. If your boy is gonna be your pet and not for breeding purposes/showing then who cares how much he'll weigh, he still be your yorkie and you can love him regardless of weight. Whats a couple of pound here or there??

| My Daisy is a little over 6 lbs and is only 19 weeks. Size doesn't matter.. You want a good healthy pup. I wouldn't get rid of him just because of size.. Oh, and I see that you sell Mary Kay?? I'm a Director... |

| When I got Emma, I was told she would be 5-6 pounds at the very most. She is closer to 8 or 9 depending on the day. I love every last extra pound of her and she is not very big at all. She comes to about the middle of my shins. In comparison to your 10 pound estimate, your baby will not be all that much bigger. I can take some pics of her tonight and try to compare her with some stuff just so you can see how big she is. I think if you put aside his size, you'll just fall in love with him and his personality and it won't matter one bit.

| Thank You Every one has made me feel so much better. I love this little guy. I just wanted another 5.5 I guess. It sounds from what I had read that I could sell him and get told this new one will only be 5 pds and he winds up big to. How can you tell then? Could this little guy just be starting out big? any chance? |

| I'll trade you my 10 pounder for your 10 pounder because yours is getting the house breaking thing down! I love my Tucker, he is twice as big as our last yorkie. The big ones don't have the health issues and 10 pounds is still a SMALL dog! Here are pics of Tucker. By the way his dad was 4 pounds his mom was 5!
