Ryder's Growth

by Sarah
(Arlington, TX)

We adopted this little guy when he was only 6 weeks old. He has had his share of worms, and is almost done with them.

Ryder looks exactly like a German Shepherd except for his brindle legs. We are not sure if he is purebred or not... according to his weight the vet says he's too small to be pure GSD. I have high hopes that he can catch up to this chart... But here is how he's been progressing.

At 6 weeks he was 4 lbs
At 8 weeks he was 9.4 lbs
At 9 weeks he was about 12 lbs

About a week later... he is now 16 lbs at almost 11 weeks.

What do you think?

Ryder at 8 months is 67 pounds. German Shepherd dutch shepherd mix? His tail is not as bushy as a normal German's and he is a little shorter and not as tall.
