Thanks Alyssa, He's lost a few pounds in the last couple of months, but I'm trying not to worry too much.
You've got a great looking pack yourself, Storm is growing up so fast!
I know what you mean. Duke being large and thick, I am extremely paranoid of his weight. He's pretty lean at 80-85lbs, but I'll never let him get over that. Bear may just end up a little tall, but he's certainly still a beautiful young GSD! Tall or not, I'd take him!
And thank you! She is growing up WAY too fast! I couldn't believe it when I measured and weighed her... she just seems so tiny to me still!! I am still thinking "puppy" when I see her... but in reality, she's closing in on adulthood soon and already maturing close behind my other two!! Not really as tiny as I thought!! I still call her my little peanut though.
Nikon - Male, intact (WGSL)
Age: 4.5 years
Height: 24.4"
Weight: 74.9lbs
The measurements from breed survey in Nov. In the summer and when we have more flyball tournaments he is more like 70lbs but I put on some weight for shows so he doesn't look scrawny, you can still see his last two ribs at 75/76lbs.
Believe it or not, this is a very recent picture of Ianna. Some days are better than others....this was a good day!
My dogs are all very close in height and weight....but Mike always stands up on his toes and looks significantly taller than the girls! He does have a big fat head
I was pretty shocked that havoc is so heavy at this age! Him and Odin are very similar in size, havoc I guess is just a lot more substantial. Here they are running together, you can see how similar their size is
Hank is 2 years old, 3 months (neutered at 16 months)
Height: 28 1/2 inches
Weight: 105 lbs.
He comes from very large breeding stock, he actually appears "skinny" but my vet is very happy with his weight.
I don't know how to insert photos
My avatar is from when he was 8 months.

To insert photo. First go below the reply box, below the boxes "submit reply" "preview post" you will "additional options" click on the box "manage attachments" you can then upload the photos from your computer. They will show up as the small photos on your post. But they can be clicked on to enlarge by whoever is reading your post. I am not sure how to insert the full size - I think you have to use the picture icon in the message window and then download from an online source where your photos are stored. At least the attachment way will get you started.
Trent - Male, West German working lines Age: 3 years 10 months (4 years old in February) Height: 26 - 27 inches Weight: 79 lbs
Very happy with his weight right now, he was 89 lbs at his worst and hovering around 82 to 85 lbs over the summer. Ideally he could still gain in muscle mass and afford to shed a couple pounds (2 or 3 lbs max) but I am more than satisfied with his current condition.
He is fairly tall and long, but his build is narrower and his bone structure/build could be considered light.
Theo - Male Intact, Working lines, German I believe Age: 21 months (2 in March) Height: 26 - 27 inches Weight: 100 lb (Has lost some weight since last vet visit, so not 100% sure). I don't know why he is so large, the breeder told me he was estimated to reach about 80lb. The vet told me he's at an ideal body weight though so not to worry about it.
Karma - Female Intact, Working lines, German I believe Age: 21 months (2 in March) Height: 22 -23 inches Weight: 70lb
Just took the pictures now in the kitchen, don't have any nice outdoor pictures at the moment.
Jerry - Male (From my limited knowledge of GSD pedigrees, he seems to be a mix of WGSL and BYB dogs)
Age: 3 years old, neutered at 2.5 years
Height: 30 inches
Weight: 87 lbs (can't get his weight above this, he's less ribby and his spine and hips aren't as prominent as they used to be, so I've given up on him gaining any more weight. People still tell me he's skinny, but I think he looks good.)
Thanks everyone for sharing! Lots of gorgeous dogs on here!
Seeing all the females on here, I guess Storm is maturing normally. Her and 2 others from the litter of 10 are a bit on the small side. I'm okay with that though, just as long as she's in standard and nothing wrong health wise.
