james christopherson Webboard User Reg: 11-21-2004 Posts: 1 Loc: Offline	HEY GUYS. I AM A LITTLE CONCERNED ABOUT MY DOBIES WIEGHT AND SIZE. SHE IS 19.5 WEEKS (4.5 MONTHS) AND WIEGHS 30 LBS AND IS ABOUT 19.5 INCHES AT THE WITHERS. I BOUGHT HER FROM A GOOD BREEDER AND PAY'D GOOD MONEY FOR HER. ARE THERE ANY EXPIERENCED DOBIE HANDLERS THAT KNOW IF THIS WOULD BE CORRECT FOR SIZE AND AGE? THANKS FOR ANY INPUTS.

Considering a bouvier's bulkiness compared to a dobe, they're probably proportionately pretty similar in size. His parents were 85 and 95 pounds, and he's of average size compared to his littermates. Not sure though if dobes tend to grow more quickly... Outside of a dog, a book is man's best friend; inside of a dog it's too dark to read. -Groucho Marx

Lynn Ballard Webboard User Reg: 05-11-2004 Posts: 68 Loc: Offline	It sounds about average to me. I use to raise dobes, and still have two. Are you concerned that she isn't going to achieve a certian size? Does she seem like something's wrong with her compared to the standard? What's the vet say?
