    Hello agian, I am trying to judge how big my baby Syd will get...I know at this point it is just guessing but I was wondering if she is 3 months and weighs 16.2 pounds (she is kind of boney though, needs to gain a couple pounds i think) and is a Boxer, Lab mix anyone know how big she might get...Her mom was mostly Lab with Shepard(sp) and her dad was mostly Boxer with a little pit...she has long legs and her paws are not huge but they are somewhat big...she is just really scrawny, i have only had her 1 1/2 weeks and she has gained one pound so far...maybe we could place bets ...hehe...

    I was told one way to estimate is to double their 4-month weight. So, let's see. Maybe 60-ish pounds?

    She is adorable!!!!!!I think 60 pounds would be about right. I have a pit/boxer mix she is about 50 pounds now. I don't know if she will get much bigger she is 1 1/2.

    If she is 16lbs now, she will be maybe 20-ish in a month, so doubling the 4-month weight would actually be 40-50 lbs depending on what she actually weighs next month. I'm not sure how big Boxers tend to be but breed standard for female labs is 55-70.

    If doubling the 4 month weight is a good method for estimating adult weight, looks like I'm going to have an 80lb lab. egads.

    Hmmm, so if the 4 month thing is pretty accurate than nana will stay small! She is a very slim girl, even though she eats like a horse! Lucky her. Shes 4 months old, id say she weighs 8 or 9 pounds, so a 16-20ish adult is not bad!

    ITs natural for them to be a bit on the scrawny, awkward stage at this age. As far as how big...

    I say around 50ish??

    Lets see boxers are about 50-60 lbs, pits can be about to 55lbs, american style sheps are about 70lbs, german style100lbs, and labs 70lbs! add them all together =355 lets divide this by 5 and we get.....71lbs!

    thats right my guess is 71lbs! I'm in!

    what a mug!
    i love it when their skin gets loose and then they hit a big growth spurt! :lol: they run and their backs wiggle and roll like hulla dancers! enjoy this little girl! congrats!!!

    Nala was 15 pounds at what we are guessing to be 12-14 weeks. She was around 20 pounds at 4 months, so we estimated 40 pounds full grown. She is already 40 pounds and in fact looks a little bigger to me now than the last time I weighed her, so I would not be surprised if she weighs more like 45 pounds. And she is 11 months old so she may still be growing. That's why I picked 60 pounds instead of 50 for Syd. :)

    Remember, it takes up to 2 years for them to reach their full weight. They may stop grwoing height wise, but they gain in muscle.

    HI Winnie, I would definately say 50-60 lbs. Boxers and labs are both thick breeds. Harley is 16 months and 50 lbs. She won't gain to much more weight, but she was the runt of the litter.

    The nice thing about boxer/pit type dogs, is unlike other large breed dogs, they are more fit than bulky so they may weigh 60 lbs, but they are shorter and leaner so you can't really tell they weigh that much.
