Puppy Weight vs Adult Weight

[Abby Christos]

Hi Everyone! I'm new here but I've been very curious about how big our puppy will be. Parents were 35 & 45 lbs, but Bobby seems like a big boy at 9 weeks and 14 lbs.

I thought it'd be fun if you all posted your  dog's puppy weight and adult weight (expected dog weight).

Thanks! :)

14 weeks – 31 pounds
1 year and 5 months - 85 pounds

Well, I'm guessing that your pup will be bigger than his parents but that just means there will be more of him to love :-) 

My new pup was 8 lbs at 8 weeks old, her parents were 50 & 65 lbs and I'm expecting her to be about 50 lbs.  I know of a few pups who were 12/13 lbs at 11 wks old and these pups should be 40-50 lbs (I'm on a facebook group with other goldendoodle puppy owners).    I think that my boy Webster was 13 lbs at 8 weeks old (I don't remember exactly, but that is stuck in my head) and he's a BIG boy at 88lbs!!!  Webster's mom is 55lbs and his dad is 73lbs so Webster is an over achiever.

When your pup is 4 months old, you can predict his weight by doubling it and adding 5-10lbs.  Bobby's weight right now doesn't mean that he'll be as huge as Webster but I would guess that he'll be 50-55lbs as an adult.

Luna is a mix of a ~20 lb. mini poodle and ~55 lb. golden

At 9 weeks she was about 8 lbs.

12 weeks 12 lbs.

Fully grown 35 lbs.

Abby,
Beckley our new puppy is a multigen, his dad Levi is around 49 lbs we are expecting Beckley to finish out between 50 and 55 lbs. Lay week at the vet he weighed 9 and when we brought him hone he typed the scales at 7 1/4

[Ellen & GIBBS]

My double doodle (mom is a labradoodle, dad is a goldendoodle) GIBBS is now 20 wks old and weighed in at 38 lbs today. The vet said that he's lean and just right. I expect him to be at least 65 lbs at adult size.

Our Charlotte is evidence that you can't always go by the parents' weights to predict the eventual adult size of a puppy.  If my memory serves me correctly, Charlotte's mother weighed 42 pounds and her father weighed 36.  Charlotte is now fully grown and weighs a little less than 24 pounds.  Go figure!
