Full grown?

blacke · 03-29-2008, 09:49 AM

At what age do doodles reach their adult size? Henry is only 5 months old and I know he has growing to do. His feet are huge! I'm just wondering when he will reach his full size.

Denver will be two in May
and he was still filling out in the chest area
about two months. I think he is grown now...........
Might be different for the smaller doods but our vet says
they can still fill out between 18 months and 2 years.

By 1yr old a dog is (usually) done growing in height
but can gain weight and/or fill out till they're two years old.

Max is 21mos old right now and his build has thickened up a bit
he's still lean but solid.

Sam is 2 and we haven't seen much growing from him lately. But we adopted him so we don't know what he used to look like.

But as for doodle feet... Sam's are GIGANTIC too!

Dex didn't grow much after 8 months...maybe just filled in a small bit. I think they are all different though because some report their doodles growing until close to 2 yrs old.

Jonah will be two on wednesday, and unless he just gets "fatter", at 83#.......I think he's done!!

Miko is holding steady at 57# @ 19mo and Rumor at 55# and 2 1/2 is completely grown. I'd like him to fill out a little more, but he just burns it all off...

Bailey is 18 months, and she's been 26 pounds since she was 11 months.
