Bellanrocco: Yes, Jezebel is just turned 19 weeks on Friday.

When I weighed her last Friday, I expected to find that her growth rate had slowed a bit because she just wasn't as hungry. She was still eating well, but left more kibble in her bowl. I suspected that she probably wasn't growing as much so she needed less food, and the weigh-in confirmed it. Who knows if slow down is permanent, she could very well have another large growth spurt. After all, if you follow the growth charts, a pup that weighs 2 lbs at 7 weeks should top out at around 6.5 lbs, and she is already beyond that at 19 weeks ... so I have just stopped trying to guess what will happen.
