Talking of size and weight etc...
« on: January 31, 2007, 04:47:42 PM »
Does Holly look about right from this pic? Concerned that one minute we're overfeeding her and the next shes underweight!
She weighs around 13lbs and is just over 19 weeks old.

Holly looks fine but as has been said on another thread unless the puppy is grossly over or underweight then you shouldn't worry too much about them at this age. Puppies go through stages where they look podgy, think 'puppy fat'  ;) and then they have a growth spurt and look all gangly and skinny. It's perfectly normal so as long as she is eating normally and growing ok then you don't have too much to worry about at this stage.
