Growth

Hi, my puppy is now 10 months old, can you tell me when he will stop growing.
Thanks Maria
Hi Maria
That depends on what breed of dog he is. Small and tiny breeds can be mature as early as 10 months old. Medium size dogs at around 12 - 14 months, and large/extra-large or giant breeds can take as long as 18 months to 2 years to reach their full height/weight.
If your pup is a mixed breed pup, then it can be a real guessing game, unless his parents are purebreds and you know how big they were!
To find out ways to estimate the adult size of your pup, check out my Puppy Weight Estimates and Puppy Weight Chart pages.
Hope this helps. Best of luck with your pup.
