You can also double the weight at 12 weeks and sometimes add a pound. An experienced eye can look at a pup's paw and joint and add that to the equation.

Max was 3 pounds and a few ounces at 16 weeks and he is now 8 pounds, 13 ounces. Over standard. Teddy was smaller, but has filled out to 8 pounds.
