Quick question?

Just curious really, Otis is going through a leggy stage at the moment and one of his ears have dropped but I think this might be to do with his chewing a lot lately (correct me if I am wrong). What I want to know is that Otis' stance is quite small at the moment, will his stance broaden as he gets older, he is just 7 months. Not too worried just wanted to ask.

Oh yes, they take a few years to come into themselves and even then I notice Moo developing

His general frame and height will develop over the first 2 years approx, then he will fully fill out into his frame.

At 7 months he still has a lot of body changes to grow through, don't worry

Cheers both He just looks so leggy at the moment with a slim chest

My scrumps was all legs paws and ears, looked rather odd

Looking forward to seeing how he grows up, not wishing his time away obviously, but it will be nice to see how he changes. Hehe I think I have seen a thread before that mentioned that they can look quite out of proportion for a time till everything levels out bless them

yer he's got a long time to keeping developing harvs over 2 now, but is still growing out and changing all the time

Definitely, they tend to stay leggy and just grow in height for a good year and over

I was pretty ignorant - at around 12 months I was convinced Roxy wouldn't change any more, despite what everyone said. She's 15 months now and has suddenly filled out quiet a bit

When I look back at old pics of Logan he is exactly the same, slim and leggy with big goofy paws. He is 16 months now and is very filled out already. Still think he has a bit to go because he still looks very puppy like sometimes.

As Baccus's breeder told me " he'll go through a stage where he looks like he's been beaten with the ugly stick ". But she was wong, Bacchus has ALWAYS been soooo handsome.

Yeah Saffy has only just started to fill out a little, we have always called her a little kangaroo!

The way I look at it, is they need long legs in order to do all that jumping about they do everyday

Very normal Suki is 2 years and 7 months and has started to add more muscle as of late

He'll fill out over the next 18 months!

Just think yourself lucky - people used to think Dempsey was a large Jack Russell!

Aww poor Dempsey. Cheers again everyone...It will be interesting to see what happens over the year then

Don't worry Katy is all legs at the moment but we see her changing nearly every week
