That chart gave me some reassurance that my furbaby is going to be close to the breed standard when he grows up (give or take a pound or so). According to the chart, he'll be 4.5 lbs. Based on his parents' sizes, I expect him to be closer to 6 lbs. Even if he's over the breed standard, I'll still love him, but as a new owner, every little bit of extra information makes me feel better. Since I'm buying pet quality, I'm really glad to have rough guidelines to go by and I'm really glad this chart is available. |
