How Big Will Your Puppy Get?


To estimate the adult size of your puppy, look at the column of numbers below. The left column gives the age of the puppy in weeks. To calculate it's probable weight when fully grown, weigh the puppy in ounces, look along the line of figure against the number of weeks of its age, and take the figure nearest to the present weight of the puppy. The expected adult weight of the puppy will be given at the foot of the column.

The items in RED below shows a puppy's weight at 8 weeks old and 21 1/2 ounces. Go down to the bottom line to see what their approximate adult weight will be.
