Hard to tell at 8 weeks, or even 12 weeks. The best breeders will tell you that they can't guarantee, only estimate. Generally, you can double the weight at 12 weeks and sometimes add a pound. Some pups are complete surprises and stay really little or grow much bigger.

My boys were on track to be about 6-7 pounds, but they grew to 7-8 pounds.

Best to bring your new pup home at 12 weeks or older. They should be with their mom until then. Good luck.
