Travel to Spain, how big will my puppy be in 8 months time?

Hello everybody, my lovely Chulo is now 2 months old and we are planning to take him to Spain for a 3 weeks holiday in September. KLM seems to be doing the best deal whereby we pay for Chulo according to his weight and size. Can anybody help me how tall, wide and long he will be at 11 months of age? what will be his likely weight?
I have to supply these details so that they can give me a price for his ticket in the cargo hold.
Also if anybody has an idea how big the crate needs to be, please let me know.
Thank you, Axel

hi from me and the boys

It's impossible to say. All dogs grow at different rates.

cant really answer that they all grow and weigh different but at a guess about 10- 15 kilos thats just guessing fully grown Male can be around 20 kiols up

hia from me and sasha
sorry really hard to say,they do all differ so much.

Hi and welcome to the forum from Rocky and me.

Difficult to say what weight he will be in 8 months time as they can vary. Did you get to see either of his parents as that may give you a clue as to what his size may be.

Hi & welcome to the forum ><

Hi guys, thanks for the welcome and your replies. I saw his mum but only a photo of his dad. Because he is supposedly pedigree I thought there must be a standard regarding his measurements and what more or less to expect. I'll just give them an estimation when it is nearer the time. thanx again!

There certainly is a standard & most staffords will be there or thereabouts, but at 8 months old he'll be nowhere near full grown. And as they all grow at different rates it's impossible to give an answer. If you have to give weights/sizes well in advance I'd give them the upper size limit mentioned in the Standard.

agree with Caryll here , my boy was shooting up around that time but if you have to do it in advance then go for the bigger end of the possibility so guess at 20kg as long as he is a pure bred staff at 8 months he should never be more than this. My boy was about 13-14kg at that age . Crate is the other difficult one , they should be able to stand up and turn around. My boy is 18" abouts from the base of his neck down the back at 9 months and he is a larger stafford though by no means huge

Hi and welcome from me and Pixee.

thank you Caryll and Dave, your comments are really helpful and have more or less an idea what to do now. I love this site! practical and quick advice! hope one day I can contribute with tips but at the moment I still have to learn a lot about dogs and in particular Staffs. Thanx again!
