Forum Rules | 1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect. 2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff. 3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned. 4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule. |

| 21lbs is a fine weight for a nearly 4 month old husky. I wouldn't doubt her getting to 40-45lbs at all. Dogs grow at different rates, most usually have a good growth spurt between 6-8 months. Though she may seem small next to other huskies, a lot of huskies are way bigger/taller than they should be in terms of standard size. My girl was 15lbs at 5 when she was spayed months and didn't get over 20 until maybe 7 months, and topped off at 29 (current weight at 16 months). My male was 40lbs at 8 months when he was neutered and topped out at 53lbs(current weight at 4.5 years). She will probably have a growth spurt in the next few months.
I don't really think there is a way to estimate really what size they will be though. It's so unpredictable when they will have their spurts and when they will finish growing exactly. A vet I went to once when I first got her and thought she has KC told me Rogue would "at least" be 50lbs... she is 29, so, haha. |

| Your dog is fine Cato was 40lb at 8 months and he almost done growing at 45lbs. I'm sure he will fill out by 2 and may hit 50, if I'm lucky. Don't worry too much about expected weight, just make sure your pup isn't too thin or too thick and you will fine |

| Thanks for the replies everyone I know I shouldn't be woried about Yuki's weight, I mean she seems pretty standard, I just found it odd that her full sister from the same litter was a whole eight pounds bigger than her! :O Naia is gonna be one big girl! Yuki can stay my small little baby <3 |

| Just adopted this beautiful pup from a rescue, I'm concerned for her size. She weighs 13lb and she's about 12 weeks old. I need some feedback, Thanks |

| It seems that huskies vary extremely from one to the next. Kylah was 10lbs at 11 weeks and is now only 35lbs at 8 months. I'm hoping she has another growth spurt, I was hoping she would be a little bigger. |
