Under or over the weight you expected ?

[StewiesMom]

Stewie is exactly what we expected, so I am not going to vote.

[stacisnyder04]

Well cosmo was over and under in a way. WE thought he was going to be 8 lbs or more becusae that was what his parents were. Then after I brought him home the vet siad 4 to 5 lbs. He is 6 lbs now and has stayed that way for awhile. Cosmo is unpredicatbale.

I didn't vote because I wasn't really expecting a particular weight with any of them except that they would be under 5 lbs which they all are so they were neither under nor over. I judge yorkie size more on length and height than weight. It just makes more sense to me.

Unfortunately both my Breeder's predicted the wrong weight to boost their price. I felt lied to, but I love them just the same! Artie was only supposed to be 5 pounds, he was up to 10 1/2 lbs. just last month, he has lost 1 pound on his new Diet. Abigail I was told would be 12 lbs. she was already 9 1/2 pounds last month, her new Diet brought her down to 8 3/4 lbs. I cut all their Table/Human Food, they both exercise alot (we live next door to the Dog Park) They are very muscular so I can see the heavier weight. I do not prefer the smaller ones, just b/c they are more delicate. So I intentionally wanted a medium weight & size. But nothing over 10 pounds, a friend of mine has a 50 pound male that has allergies and a special potatoe Diet?

Just an FYI..my breeder corrected me when I called her smallest pup a "runt" she explained to me that the "runt" of the litter is usually not a healthy pup yorkies come in different sizes..standard being between 5-7 lbs. However you can get a smaller one or larger...to me they are all love bugs no matter what the size...My Sadie is 2 1/2 years old and 5 .5 lbs..with a 90lb attitude lol.

Kitty was suppose to weigh (according to the breeder) 4-5lbs. She weighs around 6.9 to 7.2 depending on the day and time you catch her.

[StewiesMom]

Now I voted! Stewie is more than I expected. He is 8.5 lbs at 18 months. He was about 3lbs @ 16wks. His mom was about 7lbs and his dad was about 3lbs.

[Oscar's Mummy]

The breeder predicted 4 to 4.5lbs for Oscar.. I have no idea if he's over or under though as he is only 7 mths and it's hard to predict when he'll be done growing. I had him weighed at the vet yesterday and he was 2.9lbs.

[GeorgiesMomma]

Georgie is 3 1/2lbs right where the breeder said he was going to be.

[Twinkie_love]

Twinkie turned out to be smaller than the breeder expected her to be.
BUT the weight chart was pretty much accurate in our case.
She is 3lbs and we figured it out from the chart as early as 14weeks.

[sondra2004]

The breeder told me Peanut will be 6-7lbs.But he is 8months at 13lbs.Thumpe will be about 15lbs. He is 16 weeks and 8lbs.

[Lacy's Mom]

K.C. - the breeder and I both thought 3 or 4 pounds and he is 3lbs 14 oz full grown so we were both right. According to the growth charts he shouldn't have even made it to 3 pounds. He was 9 oz at 9 weeks, 1lb 7oz at 3 mos.

Allie - got already full grown.

Kelsey - the breeder said 3 and 1/2 pounds full grown; however she also said the Mom was 2.3 pounds and she was actually over 5 pounds (the dad was larger) when I weighed her! So I think Kelsey will be about 6 pounds. She is now 19 weeks and 3 pounds 2 oz. She was 1lb 7 oz. at 9 weeks. So, had I listened to the breeder I would have been disappointed.

P.S. I didn't vote.

[Sadie's Mom]

The breeder told us she would probably be 4 1/2 pounds or so. When she got to (is it 16 weeks where they double the weight?...can't remember) the vet told me she'd be about six pounds (which she is). I was kind of disappointed because I'm small, and wanted a very small dog, too. The vet said, "Is that ok?" Like what am I going to say?...."No?" Whatever...I'm so in love with her it doesn't matter how much she weighs.

[sandraj]

I was hoping Holly would be in the 7lbs + range! No luck--a mere 3 and a bit lber! I love her to bits and she has such a great personality! However that first month was a concern when she was so tiny! The breeder wisely didn't hazard a guess!

[magnolia]

I only voted once so I based my vote on Gabby a.k.a. Miss Piggy..LOL! Her mom weighed in between 5-6 pounds and dad was about that, maybe smaller. I thought (though breeder never gave estimate of her weight, which I respect that) I would have one around the same size as mom (my first furbaby, Katie, was 5 pounds full grown). Well, Gabby had other ideas and wanted to be a pleasingly plump little girl and she is that, all 16 pounds of her Now Gage on the other hand, is a rescue, I have no clue what his parents looked like and he weighs in between 5-6 pounds. So, if you hadn't guessed already, I voted over Great poll by the way.
