SearchIs this a good weight and height for a 7 month-old?
Okay, so Niko is going to be 7 months-old tomorrow. We weighed and measured him tonight just for fun. Well, he is 27" at his shoulder and a whopping 97 lbs. He's not overweight at all, he gets lots of exercise; I'm just concerned about his size, he's so massive already and has a long way to grow yet. Is there anything I should be concerned about? His sire was a good sized dobie, but I think that Niko is going to be larger than his sire. I couldn't believe it when we weighed him, I still look at him and can see that little 12 lbs. puppy I brought home in February!! And I swear there are times he does have that little baby look on his face!!
I know, I'm paranoid! I guess he's just gonna be a big boy; I just wanna make sure that it's not something I should worry about.
I love my big lug!!
Yeah, that's what I'm worried about. He's not fat by any means...he's just big. He's already got a chest on him and he's solid. It's like nobody told him he was supposed to fill out at a 1-1 1/2 years old!!
He doesn't have any fat on him and he loves to run, walk and play. Like I said earlier I'm just concerned that he may have some health problems later on because of his size. Here's a couple of pics we just took of him for a reference on how big he is.
These pics were taken about a week ago, at most.
Wow he is a big boy. But Harley has stayed on the small end, so it is hard to compare. Even though Harley is still a puppy and has tons of energy, the doctors told us that his thyroid is low. Maybe you should have Niko's checked, just in case. It can't hurt!
