how big does doodles get

[Lynne Fowler-Oodles of Doodles]

Doodles can be of different sizes and colors. I have one who is about 45 lbs and another who is 95 lbs. It depends on the sizes of the parents.

[marcia hill]

her parents looked about 50 lbs. i hope she doesnt get any bigger. she is 4 months and weighs 24 lbs now what do you think?

[Lynne Fowler-Oodles of Doodles]

I think it's possible for her to stay about 50 lbs if both her parents were the same. My Ginger is 45-50 lbs and is a good size, but she tends to be more laid back. Jack who is about 95 lbs is a big, goofy, nut ball who THINKS he is a lap dog. I can't lift him at all, but he is so lovable that his size doesn't matter. So, the personality has to be taken into account, too. I can't go on the puppy sizes as both mine are rescues and I didn't get to share their very young puppy days with them. A breeder needs to weigh in for further info.

But size won't matter if you teach her to behave, mind her manners and be very lovable.

I know exactly what you mean! Cassie is about 20lbs heavier than what we were going for, and she's still just a puppy - 8 months. Yet, not only that her size doesn't bother me, I even like it now, because I can't imagine her looking any different!

[Lake Girl, Lizette]

I read on this site I found that had a chart that (approximately) a puppy is at 40% of their weight/size at 4 months and than it might vary by as much as ten pounds at full adult weight/size. Of course, given some don't eat like my Molly and other pups have ferocious appetites...I think the average can be deceiving. I also think genetics if they take after mom or dad or precious larger breed grandparent can play a huge factor in outcome.

[Linda and Murphy]

That held pretty true for Murphy. He was 40 lbs at 4 months. He's 2 now and weighs ~90 lbs

Marcia..here is an example of doodles on the smaller size....Mine are mini's...
Lacie was 16 pounds at 4 months... and is now 26 pounds at 8 months. (F1)
Mia was 12 pounds at 4 months... and now 17 pounds at almost 6 months (F1B)

[Kay and Tanner.]

Tanner will be two years old next month and now weighs 85 pounds...He as been about the same weight now, since he was about 16 months old.

[Denise, Winnie, and AngelAbby]

Our Abby was just to the vet yesterday for shots and at 13 weeks she weighs 20#, and she should be heavier. She is on the thin side - tho my vet told me not to worry. (yeah right!!) She also said that Abby will be a large dog. How large - I guess time will tell...
