Jerry could probably weigh over 100 pounds and still be a good weight. He's 30-31 inches at the shoulder and big-boned. He's been hovering at 86 pounds for a while now and I'd like to see him at a little over 90. He's still a little bony - you can feel his hip bones and spine and see all his ribs when he's panting and people sometimes say he looks very skinny, but most people are used to fat dogs. He seems to have gained a lot of muscle in the past 5 months and his coat is much shinier. If he stays under 90 pounds, I'll be fine with that. I like him lean.

I agree with you! You can not tell from the photo.

Reno is 18 months old and 105 pounds. He's close to outweighing me & I hope he's done gaining weight. (his sire was 100#)

My old dog Zeus, he was 110 lbs. he was not fat nor overweight. He was a tad too tall for for a GSD, he just grew a little bigger than normal GSDs. What killed him was cancer, his hips were fine.



A month just before he died from hemagiosarcoma. He did gain weight because we didn't take him on long walks anymore.
