How can I tell what what my puppies adult weight will be?


He is a 12 week old Labradoodle pup, who is being feed dried kibble.

You would have to use the average weight for the breed which would be around 25kg. What you feed shouldnt matter. Kibble is best as it helps prevent teeth/dental probs. I fed my 17year old mastiff kibble his whole life and he had perfect teeth even at this age.

He's a mutt. You can't tell.

You never will know because it just depends but you can ask your vet what his average weight will be.

Average the weight of its parents.

your vet should be able to tell you the range of weights that your dog should be when hes an adult

With the cross of the breeds, there is no telling.

Even with a purebred, it is hard to tell. Too many factors to be taken into consideration, health, diet, activity level.....

Usually this cross breed is pretty large because of the lab yuo can tell a dogs largeness by his feet.Big feet usually means big dog.Your weight of you dog will probably be about 90 lbs or so maybe a little smaller.

you cant really tell at this stage but regular visits to your vet to be weighed will give your vet a good idea based on what your puppys weight gain has been from the start.
