I have questions??? Please let me know what you think or know. looking at a pup that is now 7.5 weeks just under 1 lb, wanting to have a 5.5 to 6 lbs adult full grown. Mom is 7 lbs and Dad is 4.75 Her ears are not yet errect, should they be by this age? Also the breeder did not clip dew claws, I read on AKC standard that the rear ones should be cliped but that forfront is optional, has anyone kept thiers on and should I have them removed. Thanks for any advise |
At 8 weeks of age you x's the weight by 3 so it looks like she won't grow to be the size your looking for. Although at this age its an estimate and not 100% accurate to know how big they will grow up to be. Weight charts do indicate she will be under 4 lbs full grown unless she has a really good growth spurt unexpectedly. As far as the ears they still have time to stand but shaving them and taping will definately help. Dewclaws I always remove since it can be very painful to them if they get one caught on something and it gets torn off. I definately recommend having them removed. |
