Just wondering, this is the first dog we've raised from a puppy so we've never seen this stage. Do you have photos of your dog as it's "filling out"? I know his muscle mass will be increasing, it already is. His coat has been pretty much the same since he got his adult coat. I'm wondering about weight gain, will there be a lot as he's filling out?
Josh was at the vet the other day, now he weighs 83lbs (10 mo, approx 27-28" tall), the vet said his frame should support an 80-85lb dog when fully grown but he should never get above 90. His activity is down due to the heat here. We walk him morning and night (1-2 miles) but his play session isn't very long because we don't want to overheat him. He seems just slightly heavy right now, his tuck-up isn't quite as tucked up as it was. I guess I'll have to keep and eye on him while he's growing up
