What does his breeder say? She will be the best judge of his adult weight if she is reputable and knows her lines. Some puppies grow quite a bit in the beginning and are finished by nine months. Others grow in their second year.
Wow thats pretty cool I have never heard this before.. by the shoulder do you mean like the top of the shoulder ( middle of the spine?)
