Just curious since my Vet told me today that Maxwell "weighs 8.2 lbs". I think I have a fat boy, but it's my fault for giving him so many treats. Maybe he's eating a lot lately....and with my "add-ins" is probably why, you think~?

Blizzard (7 year old fixed Alaskan Husky female) weighs in at 60 pounds.
Buddy (3 year old intact Boerboel male) weighs in at 130 pounds.

Blizzard has past her middle-aged spread, and should not gain any additional weight.
Buddy is still young, and thin, and will not reach his maximum weight for another 2 years.

I love Boerboels. They're so beautiful.

My 9-year-old neutered male Siberian Husky is a fit and trim 72 pounds.

What is a Boerboel ? I've never heard of it.

Lena- 10 (ish)year old Alaskan husky female 106lbs
Sadie- 10 month old Husky/Shepherd mix approx 50lbs.

Yes. Lena is severly overweight. She belonged to my fiance before we got together and she had been living with his mother for several years as he had to move to an apartment that didn't take dogs. we got her back in March and she has dropped close to ten pounds. I feel it should be more, but the vets have said due to her age and overall health, we should go slowly. So she plays with the puppy, who we adopted when she was a little scrawny abandoned thing. Has worked out well for both of them so far, Lena is getting more excercise and the puppy is keeping her on her toes. Sadie is starting to fill out and Lena keeps her in line

Macie - Golden Retriever weighed in at 62.6 this morning at the vet's office. She had gotten up to 66 which is heavy for her. Ideally she should be closer to 60. We're getting there.

Too much. We're working on that with diet, exercise and B.I.D. thyroid pills.

I have 2 English Bulldogs. Meatball is 44 lbs. and Porkchop 50 lbs. They're always called tiny but that's because people in this area tend to believe that a Bulldog should weigh 75 lbs. so mine look extremely tiny next to those unhealthy dogs! The average for males of this breed is 50-54, so we're right on track.

Bernese Mountain Dog weighed in at 120lbs last week at the vet. He lost 11 lbs since I started him on Costco's Kirkland Weight Control Dog Food.
