Is Cody overweight? (pics)

xo_PuPpYlUvEr_xo · Nov 21, 2006

Well, Cody is 18 pounds and although the breed is only supposed to be 10-15 pounds at full growth i've never seen him as being overweight? It could just be me though... He is extremely muscular in his thighs and arms so that could add a few pounds I guess

Any opinions would be appreciated!

No, his weight looks fine. He's just a tall boy

he looks great to me

Nope, not at all. Some breeds turn out larger than normal.

Actually, I met a SHeltie today who is twice the size of the normal Sheltie. The whole litter turned out too big, and weren't "showable"

I've also known a HUGE HUGE GHUEGHUGHEUGH Asutrailian Shepherd. It's perfectly normal. Dulce is a petite Pit Bull

that's great to hear! thanks for your opinions!

He's just big, not fat. He looks like he's in great shape.

yup Ruckus (sheltie) is 22 lbs, 21 inches.
a sheltie isnt suppose to be above 16 inches, and i think 17lbs.
so it depends on the dog

Thanks RD!

Rabbitsarebetter: That's good to know its normal cause Ruckus isn't overweight AT ALL so the breed standards can be stretched a little I guess, LOL... BTW, Ruckus is ADORABLE!

Whisper · Nov 21, 2006

xo_PuPpYlUvEr_xo · Nov 21, 2006

missbeckydee: Thanks! We like to keep him short too! Much easier to mantain, LOL

I think he looks great too! You see so many overweight dogs these days, but he's not one of them.
