Default Tucker is 9 lbs!

Tucker is 9 lbs and is the best! I just measured him and he is 20 inches long, from tail to nose. and is about 16 inches tall, from floor to top of nose when he sits and sticks his nose in the air.

He fits in a size small at target, and a size medium at Petsmart. I would look at these sizes in clothes to get the best idea, and to be realistic when buying clothes for him. I have far too many size XXS & XS outfits from his baby months as I thought he would be that small forever lol.

I really do love that he is larger. I don't have to worry about him getting hurt so much. Tuck is very athletic and has nothing but muscle. The vet said he was the most muscular dog he had ever met! He jumps around and does all kinds of things I would be weary of if he was smaller.

Tucker has floppy ears. I like them, but if you really want them to stand up you really need to stay on top of trimming all the hair off and taping them up from an early age.

Here is a pictures of him by a full sized keyboard. This is him walking and a bit streatched out. Let me know if you want more pictures.
