| 17 months old? I think he is pretty much full grown. Might fill in a little yet, but that is about all.

| I just read back in the other posts from New Proud Mom and saw that Charlie should be about 17 weeks. There is a permenent thread on sizing. But 6 months I was told a good rule of thumb is another 10-maybe 15 percent larger. This was the case with Max. *as with anything there is no way to know for sure exactly**

| If Charlie is 17 months old he will not get any bigger unless he overeats He;s within standard so he's perfect. If Charlie is 17wks (typo maybe) he may get to 10lbs full grown. Either way he's a winner. If you double their weight at 12wks (3months) and add 1lb that will give you an estimate of their adult weight. Hope that helps you, |
