Search Results for ‘size’

I have been following the forum for a few months now. Goldens seem like wonderful dogs, but their size is of some concern. Small children often visit me, so, of course, a dog’s disposition is important, but I also worry that a rambunctious large puppy might inadvertently overpower little kids...

Hey all! I’m new here and still learning so any feedback at all is appreciated! So we got a little male golden retriever named titan, and he’s always been small. When we brought him home he was only 6.5lbs. He wasn’t underweight at all, just incredibly tiny (the runt, we’re guessing). We always...

Everyone always says, "he's going to be a big boy!" based on the size of his paws.... he's 6 months old and 42lbs. I feel like this is just average. Curious for others to weigh in on their pups and their weights at various ages. He's at least 3-4 feet tall when he stands on his hind legs. Hope...

Hello, We got a 14 weeks old English Cream Golden Retriever puppy who only weighs 15.5 lbs. We notice that he is smaller than many other goldens his age (in height and weight). When we got him home at 10 weeks, he only weighed 8.5 lbs so he definitely caught up a lot in just 4 weeks (almost...

Hi everyone! My female 14 week old Golden Retriever is BIG. When we brought her home at 7 weeks (breeder was leaving on vacation so we took her home a week early) she weighed 12 pounds and ever since then she has been growing like a weed. She currently weighs 28 pounds and her body is so long...

Hi all. First post. Disclaimer that my wife and I are first time dog owners, so apologies for any naivety or unnecessary paranoia! My wife and I got an extremely cute female golden retriever (Zoey) in early November (brought home at 8 weeks). Overall, she has been doing well and completed...

Hi, My girl is 5 months now and just grew out of her last harness, and I'm hoping now I can get her something a little nicer quality (and maybe more stylish!) and it will still fit when she's grown. I'm not sure if this is possible or not, but just a hope! When I measure around her chest she's...

Hi Everyone, We're getting our puppy in one week. He'll be 8 weeks old. We are looking into buying an x-pen (Precision Pet brand), we already bought a crate for him. I'm wondering what size x-pen you would recommend. I would prefer the 36", but I don't know if that will be large enough when...

Hi there~ We got our beautiful puppy from a very reputable breeder—great reputation and decades as a Golden breeder, including numerous champions. I do have a concern, only because of what I have read about the weight of other puppies. Our boy is nearly 13 weeks old and 15 pounds. His parents...

my golden is 11 months old and weighs about 55 pounds, and 21 inches at the withers. Any idea about how big she will be when fully grown?

Hello all, I was searching for some information about our golden puppy Rio and came accross this site and it looks very good so we joined up. We have had Rio for nearly 4 months, he will be 6 months old on the 3rd of November. We feed Rio Wellness dog food per the packages instructions and he...

I was wondering if crate size would be a reliable measurement for the bed size. I asked the breeder what sized crate I should get for my puppy, and she said the 36" would be great- 42" would be overkill for her. Does this mean that a 36" bed would be enough? I've been looking for beds...

What constitutes a large breed dog anyways? In the process of researching the whole large breed puppy food formula decision. thanks

I'm trying to see if the pup will fit in a bag with airline restrictions of 8.25 inches (I will be flyiing with her on Southwest Air and not sure how strict they are with this policy) Thanks!

Promise is one year and one month old, the last time i weighed her was when she was 7 months and she weighed 45 lbs. I just measured her and she is about 22 inches, ( she wouldn't hold still) I'm gonna take her to my cousins and weigh her ( i don't have a scale) but i think she is anywhere from...
