Yorkshire Terrier weight chart

It is very important to keep your Yorkshire Terrier at an adequate weight. Unless your vet advises otherwise, you should try and keep your dog in the weight-range typical for his or her breed and gender. 

By analyzing thousands of data points, we created the real-life Yorkshire Terrier weight distribution chart. For a typical female, the weight ranges from 2.8kg to 4.3kg and for a male from 3.1Kg to 4.6kg. That is, 6.2lbs to 9.5lbs for females and 6.8lbs to 10.1lbs for males.

The chart presents the percentage of the population that falls in a specific range. For example, the Yorkshire Terrier weight is such that approximately 25% of the male dogs have a weight between 3.5kg and 4.5kg (between 7.7lbs and 9.9lbs) and 25% of the female dogs have a weight between 4kg and 5kg  (between 8.8lbs and 11lbs).
