got Rosie weighed today and she weighs 2.9 kilos is that tiny and i`m here thinking she is really tubby

I think she looks fine  I have used this chart as a guide for Alfie http://mycockerspaniel.com/weights_der_cockerpups.htm

You need to scroll down for the English Cockers and there is a separate chart for boys and girls. Alfie was 3.3kg and fits in nicely to the boy chart

Not sure of her age but Riley at 10weeks was 4.2kg.

Hi Jessie as a pup was about the same weight at 8 weeks. She is now 8years and is a small cocker spaniel and weight 10.4.kgs.  Hope I am right in saying that bitches are smaller than dogs anyway.  Aslong as she is growing steadily is eating and has the normal energy of a pup her age I would not worry.

She fits into the 2 month range then doesn't she? They are all so different anyway, just like children so try not to worry  I can tell Alfie has grown in the few days we have had him!

I'm not a huge fan of weight charts to be honest as there is quite a big variation in Cocker puppies so you could have pups of the same age who differ quite radically in weight but still are perfectly healthy and "normal". Some pups are genetically programmed to be petite and some much heavier - as long as pup is eating well and is lively and happy, there usually isn't anything to worry about

Henry was 2.95kg at 9 weeks and 3.5kg at 10 weeks 2 days, so on the small side. The vet said he was fine. Looking at different litters there's always smaller and larger ones. I'm hoping mine will grow up to be small, as I quite like the wee ones! I wouldn't worry!

[Danni and Freya]

Freya was 1.47kg at just over 8 weeks

This chart seems to be on the heavy side for ECSs. I've met a few ECSs in the States and they were huge, so perhaps they're just bred bigger over there...

she's fine - in my opinion its about steadily gaining weight while they grow rather than what weight they actually are

Wilf was under 2kg (about 1.4/5) at same age so you can see there's not really any comparison - as an adult he's now 11kg

Jinley was 3.4kg at 10 weeks.  So Rosie sounds about fine.  They grow at different rates in the first year so I wouldnt get really paranoid about it!

Oh I wish this included more brands of food. I find it very frustrating that dog foods lists ingredients and food types but not calories. We've decided to go with wainwrights trays with a bit of barking heads kibble as Madoc seems to enjoy some crunch. So far we've just added some wainwrights to the Royal Canin his breeders were giving him & he loves it!

Incidentally he was checked over by our vet at 8 weeks 1 day, he was described as "chunky" & weighed 4 kg
