Doberman puppy owners - track your weight gain here

YAY!! We finally hit 50 lbs (at 6 months 2 weeks)! :DSo up 2 lbs from last week.

Reposted tonight too and her ears are looking a lot better than the last 2 times. No obvious flop at the top of the problem ear. I saw some pics of a brother and sister from Luna's litter the other day and their crops looked very different - much shorter and they appear to already be done posting. The vet seems to have done Luna's differently - a lot longer. I actually like a long crop but I guess it just takes longer. I love her ears!

Luna just got yet another collar - pink leather with spikes - her leash/collar basket is overflowing (I may have a problem! lol).

Oh and the other puppy news, finally got Luna's AKC registration transfer finalized today - she is now officially "Luna Werewolf of London".

Here's 2 pics taken after our weigh in - she looks small in these pics but it must just be the angle because she's big:

Looks great :) I love the long crops but yes they take a long time
 
Luna looks beautiful!
Jax has only gained .8 pound in a week and 1&2...he is now 57.8...3 days away from six months. I'm trying not to let it stress me out, but with his tummy issues this week, he still hasn't gotten back to his regular amount. I know I'm a bit much of a worrier....should I be worried? In the past when we've weighed, he's always gained several pounds...
He looks good to me... For what that's worth...??!
I've got a lightweight Dobe going. Not just that he is a naturally smaller Doberman, but he has what appears to be his entire rib cage visible, his spine, and hips protrude to a certain extent. I am concerned about him. If Jax doesn't look bad, I wouldn't worry about this weight gain.

All that ground turkey is paying off! ;) I guess it's silly at this point to track her weekly weight, but i really look forward to it! :yatta:
My height measurements are at the withers with her head up and front legs straight and directly below the shoulders..[like in a Stack? is that the right word?] but i find that her skin can sometimes bunch over her shoulders, so i place the pencil level with at her shoulder blade in the lowest part of the bunch or try to smooth it out. All in all.. as with everything, it's an estimate! :D

No I wouldn't worry at all since they have the fastest growth in the first 6 months, then they slow down a lot.
