Monitor your puppy's growth with an individual growth chart
Calculate your puppy's expected adult weight
This calculator estimates your puppy's adult weight based on current weight and age. The estimate becomes more accurate as the puppy gets older.
Tip: Weigh your puppy regularly (weekly) and record the values. This helps monitor growth and respond early to deviations.
Small breeds (under 10 kg) are fully grown at 10-12 months. Medium breeds (10-25 kg) at 12-15 months. Large breeds (25-45 kg) at 15-18 months. Giant breeds (over 45 kg) at 18-24 months. Growth rate is highest in the first 6 months.
Rule of thumb: At 16 weeks, a puppy has reached about 50% of adult weight for small breeds and about 30% for large breeds. The weight at 6 months roughly doubles to adult weight in small breeds and roughly triples in large breeds.
Signs of too-rapid growth: bowed legs, stiff gait, lameness, swollen joints (especially wrists). Large breeds are more susceptible. Overfeeding and excess calcium are common causes. The puppy should be lean with easily felt ribs.
