Doberman puppy owners - track your weight gain here

[AresMyDobie]

Sorry. I couldn't resist. But yeah, I believe there should be a water component to IPO. So many Dobes might be a killer on the field, but if they had to cross a body of water, they'd be helpless.

Lol not mine that's for sure lol I knew you were joking btw lol sarcasm is great that's so weird cuz ares is a water monster lol

Kia is just a few days short of 6 months and is at 56 pounds. Tall and lanky. I think she is looking pretty good! Kind of hard for my daughter to hold anymore. She still loves to cuddle though!
[DOUBLEPOST=1437918627][/DOUBLEPOST]For perspective my daughter is 5'10.

I give you a 12 month old 64 pound Doberman. Brother of my pup. This is what I'm talking about.

 

[Firestar Dobe]

We just weighed Dauntless, she is 6 months and 1 week old, she weighed in at 70.2 pounds and is 25 inches!

Addie at 23 weeks old weighed 59 pounds, stood 23 3/4 inches. It's hard to believe. I met a lab puppy the same age a couple of days ago and it still looked so much like a puppy. Addie looks almost grown! I just realized this is my most current picture ( almost three weeks old) except for this silly one. I'm heading outside with my camera!

24 weeks mischa measured in at 23 1/4 in. Need to weigh her again tonight. Last week, she was 45 lbs.

5 months and tall and skinny. My breeder was VERY insistent I did not let him get too big too fast! At the end of the day he is 24 inches, 56 pounds

That sounds pretty normal to me.

My pup was gaining 10 pounds a month through 7 months and has finally slowed down. He's 26" and 84 lbs at 8 months. Male EU

Denali at 11.5 months is 78 pounds. I haven't checked his height recently

Mischa seems small. She's 27 weeks and was still only 45 lbs. Will have to measure though I know she's definitely gotten taller.

Bob is 5 months old now, so the 6 month numbers are projected from the curve.
Height = .7 x Week +9.5
Weight = 3.4 x Week - 13.5
=8^O

Denali's not as much bigger than Oji as he used to be. Oji is 13 months and a week or so ago he had finally climbed back up to 70 lbs.

 

[MischasMomma]

I feel like mischa is tiny. Just checked everything, at 28 weeks, she is 45.5 lb and 24in tall.

Well, I do think that is small; but I too have a somewhat small Dobe and he's a male. I imagine your Mischa is not too much smaller, adjusted for her being a female.

 

[MischasMomma]

Thanks! Yeah I remember our last female dobe was about 75 lb full grown. Mischa seems always hungry too, I might add a feeding for a bit. She gets fed 2 cups twice a day and a raw egg once a week. She knocked my bowl of ice cream off the counter and ate that today as well.

Yeah, Oji used to be a major chow hound as well. That has tapered off. Don't know if it is the summer weather, or not. In his younger months, I just kept upping his food as long as he kept wolfing it. I had him up to 6 cups of Taste of the Wild. That is a lot more than the bag recommends, but I read of people feeding that much. I have since backed it down to about 4.5 - 5 cups per day. He has a loose stool problem, and I thought it might be related to overfeeding. He still has it. Don't know if this food just does not agree with him, or if it's something else. I have a theory and I talked about it in the thread I started called something like Annoying Poo Habits.

My pup was up to 6 cups a day of TOTW too but that was what the package recommended
40 – 60 lbs 3-4months 5 – 6⅔ cups

Same thing will happen here if I give him too much. He gets just under 4 cups a day.

We just had him at the vet. He is s now 79 pounds and still very tall! ( 7 months)

They all grow at a different pace and there's nothing wrong with having a petite female. Della is only 65# at her adult weight, but that's right within the standards. Your girl still has 5 or 6 months to grow so she might be about the same as our girl at maturity.

Lino:
11 Weeks: 13.80
14 Weeks: 24.25
17 Weeks: 33.06
18 Weeks: 38.36
Is this a healthy weight? I see a lot on here are a lot heavier at those ages.
