I came to you guys before for another dog we saw and everyone on here was quite helpful, unfortunately (or really fortunately for the dog) she was already adopted when we got back to her. So here I am again asking for help.
Found this cute (but malnourished) little guy down at a local shelter. He had just come in the day before and the worker's said the owner didn't give much information as to what he was. They had him marked as a Sheppard mix. He is 4 mo old and seems quite small to be mostly Sheppard.
I am looking to adopt this little guy, but I need to get an idea of how big he will be. Knowing the breed would certianly help, but so would just having an idea of the growth rate of dogs (Someone mentioned that you should just double the size of the dog at 4 mos to get full grown size). My small apt probably can't handle much more than 25 lbs.
So ... what am I? how big do you think I'll get?
