Sharon Eliot Webboard User Reg: 02-16-2009 Posts: 78 Loc: California Offline	Quote: Connie Sutherland 165 pounds?! Whoa! Can't wait to see a picture of this beastie! Can that much weight on a dog only 10 months old do long term damage to hips and joints? Some close friends of ours have a 6.5 mo old GSD from the same breeder and the pup is probably 10-12 lbs overweight. We can already see the effect it is having on her in terms of growth and especially in her walk/gait.

Even "fat" doesn't cover 165 pounds for a ten-month-old GSD. If you know a puppy who is ten pounds overweight, then shame on her owner(s).

Yeeeaahh, we all went to the breeder's place last Sat for a day of training and the breeder ordered less food and treats for the dog. They also need to kick up the exercise for the pup!

Even so, it doesn't seem right that 2 medium size chicken legs a day are enough for a 10 month old dog expecially since she ate twice as much a couple weeks ago. Sorry everyone, you must of had pictures in your head of a freak puppy. Anna

No, two medium-size chicken legs are not enough for a 65-pound dog. But we have no idea how far off it is. And she is not losing weight? Pooping, urinating OK?
