Yes, it does happen. I have a line that grows and gains up front, maybe not 3 pounds at 7 weeks......But by 4 or 5 months they've reached about 5 pounds......stop and and do a growth spurt.....usually level off between 5-6 1/2 pounds.
Sire is a small boned male....but, his line is not known for small wee ones......
So, it all depends on the pedigree and how tightly they are line bred.....How often you see a certain dog in the pedigree.
