| Gizmo and the vet, we were weighed and the verdict is.. That Giz is a fat boy!! He weighed in at 2 lbs and 6 oz's... Our temp was 101 and we are okay!! He is very very hyper!!! I think he's catching up on what he missed yesterday, by the way he has a HUGE appetitte today!! They gave us some medicine just in case, it is supposed to kill any grown bacteria that is not good for him. Pretty good huh! P.S Any ideas on full grown weight? Vet says he will be between 3.5-4 lbs. He is 15 weeks today(3mo and 3weeks).......?????? Any ideas???? |

| I have always heard that you are supposed to double the weight at 12 wks but I am not sure. Did the vet tell you how he made his assumption? While we are talking about weight, I have a very dumb question and I know that I am going to sound like an idiot, but I just got on the scale with Tucker and it read 139, when I got on it by myself, it read 137.2. That leaves a difference of 1.8. Does that mean that he is 1lb 8 oz or that he is almost 2 pounds. I am confused with the whole 16oz in a pound. If he is 1lb 8 oz, then he is technically a pound and a half..Any help, I know you all must think I am super stupid..... |
