If you need it fast, I checked into Bed Bath & Beyond... they have really nice digital scales in their kitchen section.

I ended up buying the same scale sold in stores on ebay for much cheaper.

Hope this helps!

I hope the above link works... this is the one I got, it works very nice! Not sure if you have a local Bed Bath & Beyond.

Walmart, kitchen section has electronic ones. I just purchased mine for $30, it weighes in grams and ounces. It's perfect (for me). You could also get a postal one.

I have a digital kitchen scale... it's got a tray that is removable, so it's easy to wash, if "no-no" happens with little babies. Plus you can put a little pad in and zero it out if you want. It's little, and only works for puppies. Phoebe still fits, but barely (4.3 lbs).

I think I bought it at Walmart.

I have a digital one from walmart too. $30.00 I think. works perfect and I love that its grams and ounces for when I had a pup I needed to monitor better and grams was the best way to go.

I bought mine from Ebay. Got an OUTSTANDING deal. It is an Ultra-55 digital scale that weighs in grams, pounds and ounces, kgs, or pounds. I use it for lb oz. It weighs up to 55 pounds. You can also place a flat surface on the scale then press "zero" so there is no mathwork after you place your puppy on it.

I have a postal scale I bought from Sam's Club. It goes up to 5 pounds.

This sounds like the same one I have and I also got it from walmart.

I have a postal scale to 5 lbs, kinda old fashioned because its not digital!
I dont remember its cost. Bought directly from the post office.
You have to hand calibrate it every time. Maybe Its time I should go digital?

You can get a digital postal scale through the post office. Cant remember if they are 30 or 40 dollars but they are pretty accurate. If the puppy is too big to fit on the scale itself you can put a basket or box or bowl or something on it and tare it back to 0 so that it doesnt count the weight of the object you are weighing them in. Some post offices stock them and if yours doesnt you can order one from USPS.com

Well. I'd weigh myself first, then pick up the dog and see what I weigh holding them. Then I subtract my weight from that, and wala I know how much they weigh. (wow that confused me!)
