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???

Ours- Millie is the one almost in a bow...6 months-52lbs some said she was skinny.
Miles was bigger he was 59lbs....both slowed down after 7months and have been gaining more slowly.
Miles was 4lbs less than Millie when we got him. He was the smallest puppy. He out grew Millie when he was about 4 months and out grew the other sibling we know...a friend has a brother and even being the tiniest puppy of the litter...he outgrew 3 of the other siblings don't know about the other 4 or who got them...:-/

Weight at 6 Months
Kuma is just hitting 6 months and when we last weighed her
she was 52. Do not want to overfeed and put too much stress
on the joints.

Chief is 6 1/2 months and 54.6 lbs.. He will turn 7 months July 4th. He will be on the small side I guess.

Leo went from 48lbs. at his 5 1/2 month check up to 59 (I say 60 lbs) when he was microchipped this past week (7 months on Dec. 22)...and we thought he would be on the lean side but he continues to grow 
(he does have a pinch of collie in him along the old history lines)

Worried about my pup
My puppy, Hyperion, is a male nearly 7 months and only 35 lbs. He gets exercise, fed roughly 2+ cups of Iams ProActive Health Smart for Large Breed puppies (plus a mix of a salmon/rice food because he has bad dandruff and it has done wonders).
Regardless, he gains an average of 4lbs per two weeks. Friends/family don't think he looks small, but the vet technician asked if I expect him to get over 50 (more in a condescending manner than anything).
Now the breeder did tell me he was underdeveloped, so I knew he would be a smaller male to begin with. He has had a few bumps along the way (ear infection, skin issues, etc.), but I feel like he might be too underdeveloped. He is always happy and playful, running around, has a good temperament, even talks back to me and can pull stuff off my counters (he is very long, just skinny I think). It was discussed, as she has been in the business for 20 years and I did my research prior to the purchase/adoption, that he should get a good spurt about a month in from owning him (I got him at 3 months), which he did, and end up at about 85-90lbs. But at nearly 7 months I feel like he might miss that mark.
Any suggestions would be great. He has a follow up appointment for his ear infection at the vet in two weeks, which they weigh him every visit.

Fritz was 65+lbs at 6 months..his butt was not quite in the scale...
JDKerner, didn't anyone tell you good things come in small packages?. I wouldn't fret, your dog may surprise you one day. My boy WAS the runt of the litter, he was 1/2 the size of his sister, he was given an extra bottle at night. The breeder came for a visit, he is larger than his sister!

Oh I hope so. I knew what I was getting into when I picked him, he was also 1/2 if not smaller than any of his siblings, but I when the vets start saying stuff about his weight it make me paranoid!

No matter what anyone says about your dog, you are going to love him and do the best you can for him! Sometimes people have bad days, say mean things..then think about it, but its too late to take back. Don't fret! Post a picture, lets see the handsome boy!
