Hey, don't feel bad. I am so new to computing. I am still teaching myself on every new site and project. I just figured out how to post my pix to this site just now. I was able to post in my profile, but I still don't know to post a pic in the ID box that appears in the corner of each post. I also can't get a picture to appear as my signature. I will press on and I will conquer! Do you have Photobucket? That seems to be the easiest way for most of these. Sometimes, the options will take you right to your own photo albums. It seem like every forum, site, etc I go to take a different process.
Pippin is just now 4 mos old and weighs between 3+ and 4lbs. He was somewhere around 4lbs two weeks ago when I had him to the vet. He was just a ride along. His apt is this week. I have to re-start his puppy vaccs. I don't know what he had before he went to the pet store and the people who bought him did not take him to the vet for his check up or health guarantee.... or vaccs. I will get a current weight this week.
I hope he stays small. I don't need a micro dog, but someone predicted his weight to be as much as 20 pounds. That is WAY bigger than I was banking on. Winston is my Tzu. He is 14lbs and that is about as much as I can handle on a daily basis. He DOES look big in the pix, but he is all fuzz. I don't care about his visual size, I just don't need a 20lb dog. I haven't heard too many good things about Pom's, but I didn't realize they would get THAT big. I know all about their heritage, but Pom's have been around long enough that I thought there would be some reasonable size range. 3 - 30lbs sounds a bit out of control.
Oh well, I will ask doc if he has any guesses. My groomer has some formula she quotes in reguards to predicting her Yorkies adult sizes. I don't know if that applies to Pom's or not. This could get interesting.
