Funny you ask this...I downsized when I got Rafi because I had to lift Chama (70 pounds), Basu (80 pounds) and Massie (90 pounds) at some point in their lives and it was very difficult for me. I did have an emergency situation with both Basu and Chama and I had to lift and carry them a short distance. Not fun!
I also found it very difficult lifting the two gsds into the back of my truck.
Rafi weighs a very manageable 60 pounds and, as much as I am tempted, I am going to stay on the small side!
