His bone structure seems very light. I was wondering if any of you when their frames stop growing...not necessarily how long their weight continues to increase. When purchasing him, I asked for one that the breeder thought would be larger. She thinks he'll be about 8 or 9 pounds. I am just hoping his tiny bones can handle that weight. |
my oscar was 4 lbs @ 13 weeks, he is now 9 lbs @ 1 1/2 years old..
he is 13 in long (base of neck to base of tail) 12 in tall ( shoulder to floor ).
he does have very tiny bones even at 9 lbs..
oscar was fully grown in height & length at around 9 months..
dont worry your pups bones will grow and get much stronger as he ages so he can support the weight ..
sounds like he will be around 8 or 9 pounds like your breeder said..
this is my boy today...
