BANNED! | According to the growth chart it says 5 lbs approx. You figure it out by taking 3 lbs and x's that by 16 ounces per lb. so 3 x's 16= 48 then you go to 16 weeks old and scroll across to the right till you fine 48 then follow that down to the approx weight! Hope that helps you. Last edited by tiggerr36792; 12-31-2007 at 09:44 PM. |

| you just have to remember there is 16 oz in a pound..this is a very easy page to understand. http://pomderosaranch.com/ToyBreedWeightChart.htm it shows right around 5 lbs. and usually they almost quit growing around 6 mos..some may put on another pound or so, or can keep growing like my first yorkie did.. |
