 Growth.. "sigh"
I have the hardest time picking a pup LOL.. I love them all but according to all of the growth charts out there they are all way off.
Leah the oldest at 1 1/2 years was 3.5 lb at 16 weeks a little leggy she has turned into a great 6 -7 pounder depending on the season. She seems so huge next to my guy. He is 6 mos and was 1.2 lb at 10 weeks He is now only a bit over 2 llbs. He eats on demand and seems to be finally filling out but it may jsut be his hair coming back after I cut him down to his new growth. His puppy hair was so hard to care for, Cute but very tangly. I got my new girl and she looked so much bigger than ritz and I weighed her and she is only 1 lb 11 oz at 12 weeks. She is taller than stumpy ritz but her neck and body parts are so small. I noticed this when I cut her down too. I took her back to her new growth as well. Everyone hates how they look but the hair coming back is so soft and shiny and they dont have that lighter root growth. Ritz is going to have such anice coat . It is still light where his tan/gold should be almost a light apricot but it is getting darker. HIs bacl is darker colored gray/black but his legs are a very light silver apricot. I cut leah down too during the summer and her coat is coming back so great too.
I will try to post new pic of them soon.
I hope they take a growth spurt.though and get at least 5 lb prefferably 6 lbs though.
