| Does size matter? I have a new puppy i am getting on Sunday. *it is not a yorkie* but you guys are always so helpful! it is 1/4 Lhasa Apso and 3/4 Pomeranian. Right now he is about 3 1/2 months old and weighs 8 lbs. His mom (lhasa) is 10lbs when not pregers and dad (pom) is about 6.5lbs. how big do you think she will get?

Donating YT 3000 Club Member | It seem's like he will deff be bigger than his mother so there's no telling. One of his Grandparent's could have been 25 lbs. |

Banning Thread Dictator Donating Member | Yeah, tough to say on weight. Breed standard for Poms is 3-7 pounds. Llasos is 12-18. Here is a Web site that shows growth charts for Poms, but these things can be notoriously unreliable. Pomeranian.org - Pup Growth Chart This one says that if your Pom is at the upper limit of 51 ounces (3 pounds, 3 ounces) at 14 weeks, it will be about 6 pounds. Since yours is 8, you could guess his size would be 14 or 15 pounds. But, again, these things are notoriously wrong. Shoot, I can't find a llaso growth chart. You might google around and see if you can find something. What's the weight limit at the apt?
