Small head
I have a 5 month old male staffie and his head is tiny. Is this normal?

Re: Small head
... Can't be doing much for his street cred
As Stella says, loads of growing to do yet and you will see him chunk out

Re: Small head
Thanks for the info. His brothers have already started to get bigger heads and although I love him whether his heads big or small I was a bit worried for his sake. Every day he sits there and nods his head as though he's cold if you know what I mean and I didn't know if this was something to be concerned about?

Re: Small head
Not entirely sure what you mean about the nodding head. Is it constant or occasional ?

Re: Small head
It's occasionally but id say he does it every day. Usually when he's just sat quiet (so not very often!!)

Re: Small head
Ah ok... My Flo does that. It's almost like she's nodding off to sleep with her head up

Re: Small head
Do you mean nodding (as in nodding off as Ian says) or actual shaking as though it is not controlled?

Re: Small head
Hi sorry I had an early night. It seems uncontrolled. He will sit in his bed and just does a few nods (like he's saying yes if you know what I mean)

Re: Small head
Was going to ask the vets on the next visit as I'm not worried it's just a little weird. Will try getting a video but he hasn't done it so I've noticed for a couple of days haha
