Hey

I was suppose to get my yorkie today, but when I went to look at the baby she was sooo tiny.

I wouldn't mind anything above 3.5llb full grown but I don't know if it's usual for that size to look so tiny when they are babies!?

Anyone have any pictures of the their 'teacup' yorkies when their were babies!?

Layla is 6 lbs.. but when i picked her up she was 1.9 and the smallest thing i had ever seen... i was scared to hold her! so i can only imagine how tiny yours must be.. i've heard that some breeders won't let them go until they are 2 lbs... i think that is a great idea!

HOw old is your baby and how much does she weigh. Slade is almost 6 lbs now, and he seemed extremely tiny when I got him too.

I didn't get her... she looked too small so I thought I would think about it and consult with YT first.

I'm not sure how much she weighs. Whilst I've been at home thinking about it, I though maybe its not too bad because they are loads of people(on YT) who have tinies, who seem perfectly healthy; and obviously they would have and tiny babies too.. right

The baby is 8 weeks

If you have a good breeder they will not let there babies go until they are 10 to 12 weeks. The longer the better. Maybe you could call and get the weight of that puppy? Good luck.

SladesMommy · 03-08-2008, 01:20 PM

A good breeder really should not be letting their pups leave before at least 12 weeks.

KissKiss · 03-08-2008, 01:28 PM

here, all breeders seem to be lefting the pups go at 8 weeks. Even the KC breeders are letting them go at 8 weeks; I'm really stuck in a rut; as I really want a girl but everyone only seems to have boys left or girls spoken for..

I brought KaCee home at 9 weeks old. She was sooo tiny when I got here. She weighed exactly 1 pound! Today, at 20 weeks, she weighs about 2.5 pounds.
This is KaCee at 7 weeks

and here at 9 weeks

wow look how tiny she... she sure is cute though

She is just as healthy as a 'regular' yorkie? Do the tinies tend to have more health problems? The little girl I saw today was gorgeous but I've read alot about 'teacups' and have always shy'd away from the idea... I don't know what to do - I dont want to be waiting another 6 plus months before I get another chance
