Question about size

[jen74401]

To me Beefy is perfect but her comment made me kind of wonder. Although I probably should have known not to listen when she explained that she was a breeder. She said her mom dog had pups in November and that she is pregnant again. Then she asks "You want a puppy?" Ummmm, noooooo!

People don't like to be wrong so when her guess was off it must be the bullies fault... LOL Bullies come in all sizes and some get big early, some fill in later, and some never get big. Princess Gracie is 5.5 years old and 42 pounds while some get to be 50 pounds by the time they are 8 months. I don't think there is a correct weight as long as he/she is growing and is healthy.
How about some new pix of Sir Beefy.???

This is one of them from over the weekend.

Let me crop that pic a bit

Beefy looks good, very handsome

Haha, didn't change much

Arnold is 55-60 pounds at 9 months I believe he was about 45-50 around 5.5months. Not sure if you have skin kids but people can be really intrusive and tell you all kinds of stuff how you are wrong or what you should do. The only opinion that matters is yours and your vets, and of course all of ours on EBN, lol!!

Tipsy was 25lb at 5 months, 35lb at one year and now 42lb at 2 years. She's kept the 42 for some time now. People always ask me if she is "mini". I tell them no, she may be small but she makes up for it in bully attitude! Yours is perfect.

We get people asking us that about HRH all the time too. But 40 lbs is the low weight on the akc standard. So we just say she's perfect.

If that doesn't scream BYB and puppy mill I don't know what does. that poor mamma.

Dozer will be 5 months old on the 23rd and is currently 28 pounds

Abby will be 6 months old on the 24th and she weighs 21 pounds.

Ignore that lady. I think Sir Beefy looks amazing

Thanks guys for inflating my Beefy ego, lol. He is perfect in my eyes. She said she charges $1200 for the males and $1500 for the females and said the last litter was 7 pups. Holy moly, man, I guess that's how she's funding her kids going to catholic school. I can't imagine popping out 7 kids and then popping out a few more just a few months later. She did tell me as if it was suppose to make it better "I talked to my vet and he said it was ok." That poor baby!

 

[MamaAndi]

The woman couldn't accurately guess Beefy's age either so she's clearly no expert

Fooey on her, I think Beefy is perfect!

As long as their healthy , who cares? Gunny was 93 lbs and Sarge is 49 lb

Not sure at that age what bubba weighed. I know be was 16 lbs at 9 wks. He at a year and 3 months he is 65 lbs. seems to be keeping pretty stable weight the last few months. Watching his weight carefully since he got fixed a little over a month ago. They say they tend to gain weight after that. So far..no prob. He does get good exercise daily though and VERY few treats. I'd say and 1/8 of a piece of cheese when I leave and maybe a tiny piece of dried lamb lung twice a week. Your baby is beautiful! Don't worry about the size!

Exactly! Next time I'll just ask her "And you weigh how much?"
