bella 5months old first trip to the beach

her first trip down the beach and she loved every min of it. off to the fforestry with her this morning.

she is just touching 10kgs and shes 5 and a half months old..is that a good weight for her age?

Nice pics. I think she looks great.

Great pics. Don't woory about the weight just go by her looks. They all grow at different rates so they will have random growth spurts.

I was looking fully grown bitch average weight is 11 - 15 kgs so shes at 10kgs at under 6months so she must be doing pretty well?

It's hard to know at this age. Logan grew very quickly and had most of his weight on very early. I think these are the "ideal" weights more than anything and a guideline to work towards. Height etc has to be taken into account though too.

As Jstaff says, go on the overall look of the pup and adjust as you feel comfortable.

To me shes at the ideal weight. Plenty of puppy fat to keep her warm haha :-)

Exactly. It's a lot to do with your preference. As long as the dog isn't plainly overweight or underweight (which she obviously isn't) all is good in my opinion.

Logan was a very fat and wrinkley puppy and is only starting to get into adult shape now at 14 months.

Great pics

Lovely pics. She has beautiful markings. I wouldn't worry about her weight she is still young. Bella is 18 months now and is still growing and changing all the time

Don't get too hung up on the weight, so long as she is fit and healthy that's as important. A little bit of fat in the winter time isnt too much of an issue, she will loose it in the summer. Plus if she should get a little under the weather she has it there for protection.
