| I can feel Uni's butt bone too! She does not put on weight! If I feed her more, her tummy gets bigger, but that's it! It doesn't spread to her arms or legs. Everyone always says shes so skinny. Sometimes they are just naturally thin, just like some people. Oh I forgot to add, Duncan is still a pup isn't he? He will put on a bit more weight. Uni was about 4 to 4.5 pounds until she was about almost 2 yrs old. Now she's about 5 to 5.5 pounds.

| I thought Duncan is a man already since he passed 1 year old birth day... He's around 5 pounds now. He just have long legs but no meet on him which worries me... How ever vet never says anything about his weight... I hope they are just meant to be model body shape... Quote:

| LOL model body type is right! Uni has got THE LONGEST LEGS!!! I just measured her, from shoulder to floor is 10"!!! She is taller than she is long LOL. How tall is Duncan? I think Duncan will continue to "fill out" until his 2nd bday. It's like their bones are done growing but the meat doesn't catch up till later.

| too bad, Duncan lost to Uni... His leg is 9.5 inches and length is 11.5 inthes.. That makes perfect sence~ second stage is gonna be about gaining meat and mucles. But how come I'm like this chubby right after I was born... No wonder I'm not tall!! I missed the 1st stage!!! Quote:

Hey I missed the first stage too! I'm short! Me and my bf were just talking today about how dogs and owners look alike. both me and Uni have long legs (for our size ), long nose, big eyes, only gain weight around the belly heh heh. But i don't have big ears and she does. Oh yeah and we both have pathetic hair! Oh did I tell you.... my bf went nuts over the pic of Duncan you have in your new avatar!!!

| hahaha that's soooo funny! But I love Uni's hair~ look at it in ur avatar~ Yeah yeah, like the owner like the dog, u beat me up on having long legs too... was it just because of the magical hair tie, or because of the night time blur light? Quote:

| Bandit is SOOO skinny too...I can feel his whole back bone and hip bones but the vet said he's fine as long as he maintains his appetite. I even sneak in yogurt and peanut butter and apples and carrots and treats but they don't put any weight on him. Nala on the other hand is a chunker...at least compared to Bandit. They look the same size with their coats on but Nala is much "thicker". They are about the same height and length but Bandit weighs about 4.5 and last time Nala got weighed which was over 3 months ago she was 5.2. She's 9 months and growing strong! |
