Skye is becoming far muscular than I expected and I'm now wondering is the food I'm
Feeding her maybe contain to much protein @ 33% since she's only 7 months old.

24kg at 7 months old.. seems a bit heavy to me. Zeus is 2 and a half, and is around 22kg

Ahh ok, that makes sense then if she's a cross.

Well according to Google - an average female American Bulldog can weigh anything from 27 to 41 kg.. and then an average female French Mastiff/Dogue de Bordeaux weighing anything up to 57kg. If you look at it like that, 24kg at 7 months old sounds about right.
