Rogue is 3 months and 2 weeks and already weighs 31 lbs. Is this a normal weight for a husky? I feel like I see pictures and weights on everyone else and its less than that.

The weight varies by a dog- there is no general # for what they should weigh at 3 months as each dog has a different growth rate and a different expected adult weight. Are you worried she's fat?
If she looks healthy (can't see ribs, but can feel them), then don't worry about what the scale says.

She seems to be fine. When I give her a bath I see more of her shape. Her stomach seems to be filling out, and we run daily with her in a fenced in area and a couple days on a leash. She also has our Dalmatian as a playmate. I just know that with my Dalmatian weight is so easily put on, I've watched her activity to food level and I catch Rogue eat all of her food then Bella "shares" hers with Rogue. I just dont want to get started off on the wrong foot and their breeds are so different, I dont know if I can apply the same principles. I honestly think my fiancee just feeds her until she stops eating when im not here though.

You can kind of see her little tummy But she is too cute.

haha. She ssems fine in the picture. Post some of pictures of her from the side? Maybe we can see that tummy a bit more...

what a pretty little thing she is...and now I can see her one line on the side of her nose...how original...she doesn't at all look chubby to me. She looks fine.

Okay! Thanks guys i will post another one tonight!

Our guy is the same age and 32lbs. He isn't tubby, so who knows--maybe our pups will be big, or maybe they are just growing fast!!

Rogue! 4 months 5 days! 37.2 lbs. She is gaining 5-6 lbs every two weeks! Anyone else have a huge husky pup?






Rogue at 6 weeks and Bella first meeting her. The look says it all.



Rogue at 7 weeks. Miss that pink nose!

Don't worry, our 18 week old is right behind you! She is right around 30 lbs. I'm guessing she will be a big girl. My other Husky was pretty large at first and I thought she was going to be big, but it was just a growth spurt and she is actually very petite now, weighing in at around 40-45 lbs.

Okay! Makes me feel better. The breeder was really sketchy and I was nervous she was part mal. I would still love her, but she is getting so big! I dont give her snacks throughout the day, but she brings me her bowl or will knock it out of her stand acting like she is dying! I feed her 3 1/2 to 4 cups a day is that enough or to much? My dalmatian eats about 4-5 cups a day and doesnt really touch anything over that.

She is so darn cute with that stripe! Love her, you probably will see her weight gain slow down soon.

Thank you!! I hope so. Until then, when people tell me she looks older than 4 months Im just going to say, "She's just a little husky" Which is something my fiance says and drives me crazy. Haha

Rogue was spayed yesterday and luckily I work for the vet. I got to come into the surgery room after it was done and hold her as she woke up. Our surgeon said she was surprised that she had so much fat, but that it was probably just the breed in the cold and she looked healthy. Maybe she is a little chubby . Anyway she is doing great. She was a huge baby, but back to eating today and im doing everything I can to keep her quiet!

Does she have an hourglass shape? Bourbon is packing on the pounds w 5 cups a day more than 50 lbs.
The vet saw this picture and said he was fine keep letting him eat. But is you vet says she has a fat tummy.....

It's harder to tell with puppies, but generally, they should resemble the way Bourbon looks in the picture above.

You want to be able to feel their ribs, but not see them. You want to see that tuck between their ribs and hips, but their hips shouldn't protrude.

Ours is now 17 weeks and 40lbs. His weight is healthy--the vet gave him a perfect score for his body fat. He's just a big guy. I'm wondering how big he will get!! Thinking about getting him neutered at 6 months (but only one of his testicles has dropped), so who knows how much more he'll grow.

This is him at 14 ish weeks (I'll take a more recent one and post it soon):

I think Rogue is a little bit bigger she has kind of an hourglass.. Maybe?

Looks like a bit of an hourglass

She looks a little fluffy maybe, but I wouldn't worry about it. She's a puppy and I'm sure it'll all even out once she grows a little more.

Thanks!! I just dont wanna start off on the wrong foot with her! Also wanted to post some new pics anyway!

Rogue &Haisley (and of course my sweet Bella)! Born on the same day, but by different bitches. We found them both at the same breeder.
