I called about a female ,waiting for a picture to be sent to my email,
He said she is 5 pounds at 4 months. Does anyone know her estimate adult weight? Thanks, Deb

Don't know if this helps or not, but Sissy was 2 1/2 lbs at 4 months and now at just a few days shy of a year old, she is 4 lbs.

It is hard to tell. If she stops growing early, you have a good chance that she will be under 7 pounds. Mine so far have all stopped growing at 6 months. Scampers weighed 3.2 pounds at 4 months and at 6 months he weighs 5.5 pounds and has stopped growing. 5 pounds at 4 months is big is she is one that does not stop growing early. 3 months is a good age to go by to estimate weight, they say multiple the weight by 2 at 3 months and your pup is only one month older. Sorry I can't help you anymore than that.

I thought that seemed big also at 5 months. Probably why she is only $500. Thanks

Oscar was less than 2lbs at 4mths and now at 9mths is 3lbs. The smaller they are, usually ther earlier they stop growing. My guess would be that the puppy you're looking at would grow to be 7 or 8 pounds.

I think she will get to be at least 8 pounds. If you want one under 7 pounds, I would pass on this baby girl.
