Weight..... (Just wondering)

[nabeeha]

Hi, I am just wondering if anyone here knows or "having an opinion" about how much a GSD girl at 8 months should weigh for being "healthy & normal" in weight.

Just wondering in general.

I think that all depends on the particular dog.
Rocket is 2 years and her ideal weight would be about 70 lbs., but she only weighs about 65, and is a little underweight.
(I think due to her very very high activity level.) And she isn't a larged bone GSD.

The majority of the shepherds I have seen are somewhat "wider" than she is.

Ok thanks.. do you possible know that in kg lmfao...
I mean the reason I ask is that she is about 25kg, and someone said that is way to light.. but looking at her she looks perfect... kwim?

My friend has a Belgian X german at 8 months old and she weighs 31kg.

Okay......My dog is two and weighs 29.5 kg. Her ideal weight would be 31.8kg.

By the way your dog would be 55 lbs at 8 months and she looks great... She will probably end up being a little larger than my Rocket.

Just curious why and how long is she in quarantine?
My Rocket stayed at a kennel when we were on vacation and lost about 6 pounds... and we are slowly but steadily trying to get back up to her good weight.

Julie.

edit: nevermind... I see she is in quarantine until Nov. I wish you both the best.
