Galahad was a little shy of 60 lbs when he was 14 weeks, he is an OEM and will probably land somewhere around 200-220 lbs.

Since it is bloodhound in him, hmmmm his feet and legs, hmmmm thinking, thinking  :P maybe somewhere around 150 or so.

When Zoey was that age, she weighed about 35lbs and gained around 3lbs a week. She's 100 now at a year old and we're expecting another 50-60

Doghealer, I was SO wondering how cute your puppy is these days!   ;D

In these two latest pics, you can really see the bloodhound in him.  Love those wrinkly worried eyebrows!  He looks like a real sweetie....

My Rottweiler puppy was 17 lbs at 10 weeks

23 lbs at 13 weeks

by 4 mos she had 10 lbs for each month. 40 lbs

50 at 5 mos, and so on and so forth until about 10 months.

at 11 months, she is 90 lbs and seems to have slowed down. THANK GOD.

She is a hair over 24 at the shoulder.

I expect she matures somewhere very close to 100 lbs.

I expect your pup will end up in the 90 - 100 lbs range.

I was wondering the same thing. How big my OEM Zoe will get. She is 10 weeks and 27lbs. Her mother was 205lbs and her father was 245lbs. I am wondering if she is small for an OEM at this age or is she on track?

I would urge you not to wish for huge. Some of those dogs have terrible problems. It hurts sometimes to even watch the Mastiff ring.

 :(

What is important is to feed your puppy a healthy diet that will not cause her to grow TOO fast. I am not familiar with your breed, but we never recommend puppy food for Rotties because we want slow steady consistent growth that encourages healthy joints.

Keep your pup on the lean side, keep her in good fit condition, and when she is about 3, weigh her.

Thanks, when my vet checked her out two weeks ago he said it was better for her joints if we kept her lean. We are feeding her Eukanuba(I hope I spelled it correctly) Large breed puppy food three times a day at about 2 cups of food per serving. Our vet said that this food and amount was ok for her breed. He would like her to be lean until she is about 2 1/2 or 3. Thanks for the advice
