What size is your mini??

[Carol and Banjo]

Banjo is 4 months old now and has grown SOOOO much!  He's already 22lbs and the vet thought he would double his weight!  We were surprised to hear this as the breeder said he'd be about 30-35lbs.  Just wondering what size other minis are.

The mini's seem to reach their full size much younger than the standards.  I keep waiting and watching Kona to see which side he's going to take after.  (His mom is a 40 pound medium and his dad is and 18 pound mini)

[DJ & Chance]

Chance is a mini--at 8 months he weighs 18 pounds.  Not sure about height.  I expect that he will reach 20-22 lbs eventually. Dad was a mini-poodle and mom was a small standard goldendoodle.

Kona looks "normal" medium size until you see him next to a standard.

Some of the minis do look much bigger when you don't see them in conjunction with size.  People are often surprised when the meet Ned.

Look at what a big guy Kona is here! :-}

Love it! Those two had a lot of fun chasing each other. She was there in March too

Maggie is 10 months old and about 42 lbs.  Our breeder said she would be about 35-50 lbs full-grown and I'm assuming she's alomost full-grown by now.  Her dad is a 70 lb English Retriever and her Mother is a 24 lb. Moyen Poodle.

Xander is a mini goldendoodle:

8 weeks: 2.7lbs

10 weeks: 5.3 lbs

12 weeks: 7.5 lbs

14 weeks: 10 lbs

It is amazing how much he has changed in just 1 month!  At first he had tiny legs and everything else was proportionate. Now  his tail and feet are starting to really grow.  Breeder said about 30lbs, but from what I gather here, anything could happen.

Has anyone noticed wobbly front legs when sitting (@ ~13/14 weeks)?  A friend said that he may be having growing pains, and that I shouldn't worry about it.

 

[Nancy, Ned, Clancy, and Charlie]

Kevin, I don't remember Ned having wobbly legs at 13-14 weeks but perhaps my definition and yours wouldn't be the same????

[Kevin Oskow]

At ~16 weeks he is 16.7lbs  -  that is just over 6x his weight at 8 weeks.  Really incredible how fast they grow.

henna is 4 months now and she weights 14 lbs.

[Popeye & Pamela]

Popeye weighs 15.8 lbs. at 19 weeks. His breeder said he'd weigh 20-30 lbs. I'm estimating he'll end up around 25 lbs. This is me holding him for size comparison. All stretched out like this he looks bigger than he is though. Lol

[Gwyndolyn Morasko]

Popeye is adorable!  And yes....he looks like a full grown 25 pound mini in that photo.  Kona's good adult weight is 25 pounds.  He had a 2 month round of prednisone last fall where he gained 5 pounds in 2 months, so he is a little overweight at 30 pounds right now.  I hope he gets back down to 25 lbs where he was for over 18 months, but he doesn't seem to notice or slow down at all with his zooming.  This photo of Kona is just a few weeks old, so he is 30 pounds in this photo.  He is a love bug and MUST melt on us as soon as we sit down.
