Is that a good way to determine Miley's size too? |
I heard you're supposed to take their 12 week weight and double it - I believe? Someone else may know more than me! But yes, looking at the parents is a good way of guessing.
However, it's always so hard to guess. All pups are different! My Jackson's parents were 7 and 8 pounds and Jackson is now 10 pounds at 5 months!
