So its a year-on and I'll post this for other newbies as I guess they are fully grown now. They both got taller so no longer look like sausages, both having a length:height ratio of 1.2.
Gizmo topped out at 9" high, 11" long and 3.5 kg. I think its the length that puts him slightly above standard weight as he is super skinny and gets cold easily. He's no-longer the shortest dog in the park.
Dexter grew to 11" high, 14" long and 6.8 kg. He is pure muscle. When we buy him doggy clothes for his length they are so baggy as he doesn't have the girth of a cairn or west highland terrier.
