Do you have a BIG puppy? UPDATE on Oscar's weight

[Debb, Lucy & Oscar]

I've been scouring DK trying to find progressive weights on puppies to estimate how big Oscar will ultimately get. So far, I haven't found a puppy that was the same weight as Oscar at his age. I was told by his breeder that he should get no heavier than 40 lbs, but at 11 weeks and 2 days he's a whopping 19.6 lbs! 2 days ago he was 18.6 lbs. At 10-1/2 weeks old Lucy, Oscar's 3 yr old sister, was 15.8 lbs, and she's now 53 lbs. Anyone have a similarly sized puppy as Oscar at about 11 weeks old? If so, how big is your puppy now?

 

UPDATE:

12 weeks, 1 day: 21.4 lbs.  12 wk pic:

13 weeks (3 months exactly): 23.2 lbs

14 weeks: 25.2 lbs

15 weeks: 27.8 lbs.

16 weeks: 29.4 lbs.

     Estimated mature weight: 29.4 lbs. x 2 = 58.8 lbs. + 5-10 lbs = 63.8 - 68.8 lbs

17 weeks: 31.4 lbs.

18 weeks: 33.4 lbs. (I swear, I'm not making this up! Oscar has been gaining EXACTLY 2 lbs. a week for the past 2 weeks... I weigh him on the same digital scale each week, so there's no inconsistency between different scales.)

19 weeks: 34.6 lbs. (Oscar had his neuter procedure this week)

20 weeks: 36.4 lbs.

21 weeks, 1 day: 39.2 lbs.

22 weeks, 1 day (5 mos.): 39.8 lbs.

23 weeks, 1 day (5 mos., 1 week): 43.9 lbs. (weighed on vet's scale)

1 yr old: 55 lbs  1 yr pic:

16 months: 59lbs, 24" tall at withers:

18 mos.: 62.6lbs.

19 mos.: 65 lbs.

22 mos.: 67.8 lbs.

24 mos.: 69 lbs., 25" at the withers. Oscar on his 2nd birthday:

I would definitely give Doc a timeout in his crate or tie him off in a secluded area away from everyone  (for about 5 minutes) when he barks at your daughter like that. He needs to learn that that is unacceptable behavior and will not be tolerated. He's being bossy and demanding and its not something you want to encourage or ignore.

You are absolutely right Jane, we do NOT want to encourage his behavior when it's crazy! What do you suggest?

[Doc and Ozzie]

Thank you Debb! I will definitely give that a try and pass the info on to my family as well to be sure they follow suit!

my puppy Silas just had his wellness exam (He is 4 1/2 months ) and he weighs 32.4 pounds!

All I can say, Di, is WOW!

Oscar has finally reached the 5 month mark and is just ounces shy of 40lbs. Tim, ,my DH, says maybe Oscar will stop growing now and be the 40 lb. dog we thought we would have fully grown. It doesn't hurt to wish, I guess... :D

This is a really old Discussion topic, but I took a few minutes to update Oscar's 1 yr stats in the original post. I also posted pics of Oscar at 12 weeks old and 1 yr old. I think its interesting to note that Oscar no longer 'sits' like a puppy with his back legs straight out :)

Wow what a cutie you have! My Clara is 6 1/2 months and is 48lbs.
