Wish i was near you in Co too! Question for you: if i'm looking for a larger size male, can you give me any guidelines about what they should weigh at 12 weeks or so? Even though i will love any dog that comes into our family, i want to learn as much as possible about increasing my chances on getting a bigger one. Any thoughts anybody?

The basic rule of thumb is that whatever they weigh at 12 weeks, you can double plus maybe 1/2 lb. for their full adult weight. Of course it can vary, and some experience growth spurts at different ages, but this is my understanding of basic indication. Looking at the parents, and grandparents, and history of previous litters is helpful, but not always available. Good luck on finding a healthy one! The only way to guarantee getting one of the weight you really want is to get a full grown adult.
