How much should a staffie weigh at 1 year

How much should a staffie weigh at 1 year old

It really does vary depending on the dog. Mine was 20kg but shes a tall girl.

i would say he should be almost fully grown and around the 20kg mark

How long is a piece of string? Not an easy question to answer, there are so many different types of staffy out there. Tall, short, bully, terrier.

Also, a male will weigh more than a female of similar build.

Did you have one in mind particularly?

To be honest u should be looking at her body condition as opposed to her weight. One of my friends has a kc reg tiny staffie she is 5 yrs old and 13kg but she is in lovely condition just a ickle one lol. She should have a nice shiney coat clear ears and eyes, she should have a nice tuck up and u should be able to feel her ribs easily but not see them x

ooow i bet she is lush

she is wazza! A little pocket rocket and the sweetest temperment ive ever seen on a dog x

what colour is she dont know why but im picturing a little red

WOW.......ur good wazza! Shes red with a black mask and beautiful black rims around her eyes and one blck paw i love her...

oow she sounds like a little treasure

iv seen a couple of small staffs that have been red

her names Tink x

and at the other end of the spectrum there a stud dog advertised in our area who is 27kg of pure muscle he is a cracking bully type but not that tall

yea defo weight really isnt a great indicator. Ty is quite a small (average staff) at 17kg 14 months terrier type i would say where as kaos although i dont no his weight at mo but he's practically the same size as Ty already and will defo be alot bigger and heavier and he is alot bullier....

caryll i think we are phycic or is that phycotic

Kuma is now 18kg and at 11 month's on saterday and a would say her head is still to crack a little can start to feel it and shes still growing well muscle building up

crack?

yeah the staffys skull cracks and grows, rub your hand from the top of your staffy head to their nose and you will feel the split line in their head

I was most definatley not aware a staffs or any other animals head "cracked" unless hit with a baseball bat! I thought it was more to do with muscles forming......

Is my Maxxie on the big side then? when he was 7 & half months he weighed just over 19kg? and he has put on alot of weight since then lol

Crack , don't no about you but that's what we call it ..

Any piks of her now..? a don't think so as a said kuma is 18 and to me she looks stick thin but as said on the forum she looks fine

Like stated previously weight isn't the best indicator. Blue was about 20Kg at 1 year old but for some staffs that would be very overweight.

did you not feel for the line going down you're dogs head this line is called the crack line, its the same thing as an expansion joint as the dog gets older and the muscles grow his skulls widens out the way,
