Question about female growth

brlowe Jun 01, 2006 04:10 PM

Hello all,
I have a purebreed female named Mysti. She was born Sept 21 05. My question is how fast do they grow? Right now she is 8 months old and she is still very small. She does weigh about 30 pounds but she is about half the size of my Male Husky. Huckleberry our male only lived to be 7 has he developed Cancer in his left rear leg and after 2 operations we finally had to put him down. He was a great dog. Mysti is turning out to be another wonderful dog.
My question is at what age do they stop growing? Will she continue to grow or is she done?

She will continue to grow and fill out until she's about 2 years old or more. She might reach full height by 1 or so, but they really add on the muscle later. Mostly in their chest. They really fill out nicely and are very impressive if they're not overfed.
