Thanks for any and all input

This happened to me. I got two female puppies(sisters). I was hoping to get them in the 5-6 lb range when full grown. When I got them I thought they were big for puppies. One continued to grow and is about in that range. The other really hasn't grown much since I got her. I like to think it is because I am feeding her better food than she was getting as a puppy. Everything seems fine with her but at 5 months she is still only about 3 pounds, her sister is about 5.
