Saxon's Measurements

Hey all!

I've been told he's a couple of pounds over weight for his height, but he doesn't look over weight to me. Here are his numbers:

Age: 9 Months

Neck: 15.5" -- 40cm

Chest: 26.5" -- 68cm

Height: 15" -- 38cm

Weight: 41 lbs -- 18.60kg

A couple of pictures of him:





Just curious if Saxon's measurements seem appropriate for his age.

Thanks!

he looks absolutley fine to me, i judge my dogs not on there measurments but on thier condition. Nice tuck up, to be able to easily feel ribs but not see them except for the last one or two. Nice shiney coat no dandruff etc. He looks great! x

Looks nice and lean.

Height Min Max
Bitch 35.5cm (14") 40.5cm (16")

Dog 35.5cm (14") 40.5cm (16")
Weight Min Max
Bitch 11kg (24lbs) 15.5kg (34lbs)

Dog 12.7kg (28lbs) 17kg (37lbs)

but personally as long as hes fit and healthy i wouldnt worry about it

Looks good to me. Who told you he was overweight?

Not the most reliable source, but a woman on the street who claimed to be a Vet Tech stopped to pet him and said he could stand to loose a few pounds.

Bloody cheek!

Unless you want a 'ripped' dog, then I'd say he looks just right! My own preference is for a dog that has a good, healthy coat with bright eyes & an alert expression; I like to be able to feel the ribs but not see them.

He's looks absolutely fine to me, in that case harvey is also overweight for his height and especially his age, but i no he isn't so i wouldn't worry about it

I think he looks stunning

Saxon looks fantastic to me. Certainly does'nt look oevrweight.

saxon looks fab

he is the same age as billy, when i get home form work tonight i will measure him
