Title: When is a cocker fully grown?
Post by: Lulabear on February 12, 2017, 12:08:13 PM

Hi there. My puppy is 8 and a 1/2 months old (show). He is really still super cute and small but I've seen other cockers who appear fully grown at 10 months. Does anyone know at what age they reach their full size?
Thanks

Henry was nearly fully grown at 8.5 months, filled out at little more by 10 months. They come in all sorts of shapes and sizes - you many have a Pocket Cocker if yours is still petite.

They vary, but by 8.5 months they're usually full height. After that they continue to change shape for several months as they continue to mature, and even at 18 months or so may still be bodying up.

Blue is 10 months and our vet told me last week that he will not grow much more.  The long bones can continue to grow until 14 months, but this 'would only be measurable with a slide rule' is what he said.
