And I was beginning to think that my evil wee was a whopper at 6.5 lbs and dougal was just a freakish throwback at 16.5lbs.
It's great to see all these other whopper pups
like my dougal beast.
I agree whopper pups are the best for super hugs.
Dougal was the largest of his litter and is a clear kg (2.2lbs) heavier than his dad was. And he's not a chubby bubby cos I've been working on getting his weight down for agility. (he put on a kg after being neutered - he's a comfort eater like his mum lol!)
I think he's quite handsome and muscly. He has still got his tail and I wouldn't have it any other way - someone was commenting about tails earlier.
I took the dougal baby to the beach today so here are some pics of him with a golden retriever we met at the beach to give some idea of perspective.
I don't really care what size my babies are as long as they are healthy. Although I am tempted to get dougal's NZKC papers laminated carry them with me where ever I go cos everyone we meet is incredulous that he's a yorkie - especially since he got his groovy schnauzer hair do!
Let's keep this thread going - yay for plus size puppies!
