my golden retriever kyro is 5 months and a half... his birthday is may 10 2008... kyro is smaller than other golden retriever pup at his age... he is approx 19 lbs... but his height is 19 approx 16"... is it normal??... i fed him a adult dog food...

Tucker was around 40 pounds at six months of age, and he's a smaller Golden (about 60 pounds now at almost fourteen months). Maybe I'm way off base, but 19 pounds seems very small to me...?

Do you have a picture? that sounds small to me too!

I agree-19 pounds at over 5 months seems pretty small to me. How large were his parents? How about his siblings?

Is he just overall small, or is he very thin?

this is kyro... this picture is taken last month i guess??... do you think kyro will gain weight??... thanks...

 

[kingjoms23]

i saw his mom... his a normal sized golden... actually i bought him 3months ago... is there a chance that kyro can gain a height and weight... this is my first time to have a golden and a pure breed dog...

[boomers mom]

that does seem awfully small for a golden...but im no expert...

How much do you feed your puppy every day? Has he been checked by a vet for any health problems?

My golden girl Tia is small (about 45 pounds at age 7), but her growth was stunted because her former owner bred her at too young an age.

The picture didn't come through. So long as he's been vet checked, I wouldn't worry too much. My Golden is 41 lbs. and 21.5" at the shoulders and he's five years old. At four months, he was right around 20 lbs.

Hi and wlecome to the forum. I noticed you are from the Philippines. Do you mean 19 lbs or 19 kg? 19 kg is a little over 41 lbs which although on the small side would not be of any real concern at this stage.

That's very small. My male golden retriever pup is only 11 weeks old and he is already over 20 pounds!
