I weighed billy today and he's about 70lbs give or take an ounce or 2. I was just wondering how heavy your GSD was or is at 6 months???

I think Sinister was between 55 and 60 pounds when he was 6 months old. He will be a year old this thursday and his weight bounces from 85 to 88 pounds. He has not been to the Vet in over a month and he looks a little bigger to me. He is very lean, not a ounce of fat.

I posted about Halo earlier on this thread, but I don't think I posted Dena and Keefer.

Dena: 63 pounds (13 pounds over average female, 5-1/2 pounds over average male)
Keefer: 56 pounds (1-1/2 pounds under average male)
Halo: 46-1/2 pounds (3-1/2 pounds under average female)

As you can see, there is a large range of "normal" weights, even if they're above or below the average. As adults, Dena was about 72 pounds, which is slightly over the female standard of 48-1/2 to 70-1/2 (approximate conversion from centimeters, which is how the standard is written), and Keefer at 80 pounds, is well within the male standard of 66 to 88 pounds. Although Dena, his half sister, was larger at an earlier age, he ultimately ended up outweighing her by 8 pounds. Halo is now a year and a half old, and 58-1/2 pounds, which puts her almost exactly at the midpoint for a female.

So much for Shadow not getting much bigger!!! She is now 8mths and now weighs 81.5 pounds. My son took her in to weigh her at the vet and they were all over her, saying how beautiful she is, really well built, still has a waist and such a straight back with great legs. :) They also said she will grow some more. :O
