Pull that measuring tape out. Lets measure our dogs!

[Squishy22]

I've decided to make a new thread as to not clog up another about Razors edge pit bulls.

Ok, heres the deal. Measure your dogs height (floor to top of shoulder). Measure your dogs head at the fullest part (right before ears). Measure his muzzle length from stop to tip of nose. Measure his muzzle around the base. Measure his chest from elbow to elbow.

Throw in your dogs weight if you know it, and his age. Breed would be good as well.

If anyone wants to throw in some different measurement ideas, feel free!

Reggin an APBT @ 19 months old.

Height is 21 inches.

Head is 21 inches.

Muzzle length is 3 inches.

The base of his muzzle is 12.5 inches.

His chest is 5 inches.

His weight is 63 pounds.
