Hi
I posted here a while ago, when Scooby wasa baby buty have been a browser of the site since then. I have 2 puppies now, Scooby is nearly 1 now and Freddie was born on christmas day, so is 4 1/2 months old now.
Scooby weighs 8.4 kg (18.5lb) he seems fully grown and a nice size.
Freddie weighs 6.2kg already (13.6lb) at just 4 1/2 months.
my dad has Freddies sister from the same litter and she is around 4kg (8.8lb). Freddie is already bigger than my dads other 2 dogs who are also coming up to a year old (one is 6.2kg and the other around 6.8kg i think).
Freddie was always big as a pup, noticably bigger than his sister but we thought he was just a big boy, now i'm not so sure. I searched for topics on weight and saw the 3 pictures of underweight, ok and overweight dogs, i'd say he was between ok and overweight. you can see the "in" of his waist and feel his ribs without too much pressure.
So could he just be an exceptionally big Cavalier?
Thanks for any help or advice you can give.
