Title: How big is yours??!!!!
Post by: Amus1 on October 02, 2012, 09:48:43 PM
Well Flynn is 17 weeks tomorrow - and a couple of people have remarked that he's quite big. - but I don't really think he is! I think he's very muscular though!

Well I've just measured him and he's about 32cms from the shoulder and from neck to base of tail about 40cms. (closest I could get with a wriggly pup!)

So how big is yours??! Obviously most of the statistics for cockers are all on show types and Flynn is working type, so I wondered what the rest of you with workers think about sizes? And how big your workers are?!

Lila is 20 weeks and she is also 32cm x 40cm ish. I have no idea if that is normal as I have never seen a adult wc. She weighs about 11kg which I think is quite heavy although she is not fat

People comment Toby is big too. The amount of times I've heard "ooooh he's gonna be a big boy" and "gosh he's big for his age"

He is 14 and a half weeks and weight 7.5kg. I will measure him later on

Minnie, our WC, is just turned 2 and now weighs 17.5kg with not an ounce of fat, she is the largest in her litter, though was the smallest when we chose her, hence her name. Dennis our SC is 5 months and is now around 12kg and now almost as big as Minnie. You can see them both in the "then and now" thread to see early and latest photos.

Ozzy seems to be a 'pocket cocker'  :005:  He's not very tall (he's asleep now but will measure him tomorrow, and at 6 months old weighs in at 10.5kg.  I think he's looking a little porky, and it's becoming harder to feel his ribs than it was!  Not quite sure what I can do, he gets plenty of exercise and I think he'd be really hungry if I cut his food down.  He's going to the vets for his 6 month check up soon so I'll see what the vet says.

Riley at almost 9 months is just over 16 inches tall, and just under 14kg. I think he must be full grown,, surely  :o
He is scared of the measuring tape so had to be quick with measuring him.

Managed to measure Ozzy today, as accurately as I could with a wriggly cocker who just wanted to grab the tape measure!  He's 14 inches tall to the shoulder, and measures 23 inches from the tip of his nose to the base of his tail, 6 months old and 10.5kg.  It seems about right judging by what others have put on this thread, he just looks small compared to some cockers that I know, and he seems to have a really small head, out of proportion to the rest of his body!  I always knew he was a pea-brain!!  :luv: :005:
