Are her parents standard size? If she's healthy, then she will probably just grow at her own pace. I've seen litter mates that were very different in size as puppies, but ended up about the same size as adults.
Small for her age

Nope, it isn't a working lines thing at this age-- it's just an individual puppy thing! And at her age, do not worry about what the chart says if she is healthy, has no ribs showing, no potbelly to denote worms, and you know she is eating well. She could end up being large, medium, small-- no way to tell at this age.. it's too early.

Pups really just grow at their own pace, and the best is when the growth is slow and constant.. not the usual bursts of growth we see in many dogs fed puppy forumla kibble.
Thanks!
Both parents are within standard in height, but as Jayne's pup parents they are very lean. I knew a relative of Diabla's sire and at two years he should have been no more than 30 kg. too.
I have the Zeus chart and adapted it to kilograms

a 4 3/4 month old female weight and height question!
Hello, I'm a newbie here and I have a female 4 3/4 month old beautiful german shepherd named Beauty! She is currently 44.5 lbs and is 20.5 tall. Can anyone tell me what she'll max out by the time she's grown? Her mother was about 65 lbs but her daddy was a big boy at 95 plus lbs.
