Default stopped gaining weight?

Sage Is 7.5 MoNths Old, Has Been Gaining Weight Very Well , But The Last Month She Has Not Gained A Pound. She Is At 46.8 Lbs.

Is There Something I Should Have Checked Out Besides Maybe A Fecal For Parasites?
Surely She HAs More Growing To Do?

Thanks!

Vetting can't hurt, but I found my dogs have always leveled out on gaining right after teething(7-8 mos) They may gain a bit more height and length so the gangly stage is very noticeable until about 10 months. Then the structure is more adult looking.
Coat should be healthy giving supplements at this age(from now on) is helpful.
