I can't imagine Triton looking skinny at all!
Do you have any photos?
Can you feel the ribs easily?
This is really bad for their health.

How did you measure their heights?I weighed my self 3 times 198lbs then picked up Logan total 317lbs=119lbs
Triton 307lbs=109lbs
I,ll hit vet,s scale tomorrow
they will be at Milton meet
long time ago when they walked by door put finger at top of back touched door then measured
whats proper way
Agreed, they do not look that big at all from the outdoor photos -- now granted there is not much to measure them against for relativity but still -- they looked to be in OK shape.http://sonic.net/~cdlcruz/GPCC/library/measure.htm
Do you have pictures of them standing by someone? They just don't look oversized in the outdoor photos. And as was mentioned, there is still "tuck-up"... they'd have to be huge dogs to weigh that much and still appear fit, which they both do.

Are you sure your scale is not in kilos?????? That would be about right!
It is very easy to measure height incorrectly if you don't know what you're doing. To be honest I have NEVER seen a legit 29" golden.
I agree that the hair can hide a lot. Danny outweighs Jasper by a little over 20 lbs. But when they are standing side by side, other than the fact that Danny is taller, they look like they are the same size.They both have good "tuck up" but it is so hard to tell with out putting hands on a dog and feeling the waist and ribs. It is rare to have a vet tell you to put some weight on a dog though. A goldens coat can hide a lot though. Looking at my Caue he looks much heavier than my Oakly. Both are the same height but Oakly has 5-10 lbs on Caue. Oakly could stand to loose five of those pounds (we are working on it)
5 months after nuetering Logan put 29lbs on. Triton 19lbs
Triton still looks skinny, Logan looks little heavy
Dogs are 29 inchs and 26 inchs tall will be 3 in jan 2010
