She is 4.5 lbs now (gained a pound the three weeks after her spade) but I think if she gained anymore she would not meet the above guidelines.. so is there a weigh she should not go above or below?
thanks

I would judge by body condition first and weight second. Based on my experience with my boys and from what I have read here, pups can develop muscle late in their first year and into their second year. So, you could see a fairly significant weight gain, but as long as it is muscle, the pup would still be in peak physical condition. Remy is young, correct?
I do weigh my boys once a week on a baby scale to back up what I see and feel in their bodies.
