Puppy weight

Hello all,

I have a four month old pup and he already weighs 13.2kg or about 29lbs.
His sire is around 16kg(35lbs) and his dam around the same or a little lighter.

Do any of you guys remember how much your dogs weighed at that age in relation to their adult weight?

He isn't fat or anything except a little puppy fat which is normal I think, he is active, alert and happy. So I'm not really worried or anything but I'm just surprised that at this age he is already approaching the weight of his parents.

I will post some pictures as soon as I have my macbook back from repair. And for those interested here are the peds of his sire and dam:

I don't know whether it's allowed to link to pedigree sites, if not, I apologize for that in advance.

 

well you can count on one thing if he is only 4 months he is going to get bigger.

 

Lol, no shit!

 

13kg for only 4 month that's big for sure, mine around 7/8kg in the same age for 18kg at 6y!

 

i bred my 35 pound bitch to a 28 pound dog and the male pup i took sittin at 39 at 1year old

 

I have read on various places and was told by my vet the weight at 4 months is typically half the adult weight

 

I really hope that's not the case!! I already have an Ambull, and I wanted a smaller dog so I chose a staff.
Hopefully he'll start growing a little slower. I also read that puppies sometimes have periods where they hardly grow at all.

 

I have a 5 month old male and a 9 month old female she weighs about 55 pounds and he weighs 44 pounds and there solid dogs not any fat very active anybody give me a average what they might weigh full grown there red noses and I have bloodlines 4 generations back so I know there full Blooded just wondering really

 

Sorry he's 4 months just looked at his papers and she's 8 months

 

Some pups grow faster then others I bred my 40 lbs bitch to a 44lbs dog and all pups were over 40 lbs at 5 months I think ones only made 45 lbs at nearly a year so it's hard to say

My bandog was tiny as pup he's a 90 lbs dog now he was still filling out at nearly 3 years old lol

 

It's now been a week since I've weighed him, and he's gained another kilogram. Still haven't gotten my macbook back so can't post pictures.

I really hope it's not going to mess with his joints and tendons.

 

Dam is 42 sire is a natural 39.5. My boy is sitting at 51 at just over 10 months lean and fit too. Look at the grand parents should add up. Maybe u got the runt of the litter.

 

The runt of the litter means the smallest and weakest as far as I know. My pup is the exact opposite, he's very big for his age.

 

I have 3 females of my 42 lbs male and 45 lbs female. But the female are just reaching 20 lbs and I have the runt she only 15lbs

 

You are right was thinking the runt just being different.

 

Things that make u go hmm..

 

Can't say for sure about SBT but I have noticed some small dogs ( others breeds ) grow super fast
like by 3 months there big and then they really slow down & in the long run are small dogs. The SBT is kinda a small dog in genetics so. I think if he is a SBT, a SBT is what you'll get.
But I bet once in a wile a big-en shows up.
