I have a 9 1/2 week old pup that is between 8 and 9 inches at the shoulder right now and was wondering if anyone knows how big he may get when full grown?

I am going to take that as a joke since that would put him close to the size of my lab i own. I have attached a picture of him and have listed his sire and dam below with their sizes i am trying to guess if he will be a 15" or stay small like his parents.
Sire - NLPC FCLP GREENBAY PAWKING 13"
Dam - FC HIGHERS' WINDA RACE 13"

ridgrunner72 it is really hard to tell. I have had some pups that start out growing like yours and then stop growing and I have had some that stayed small and then all at once they hit a growth spurt. If there are 15" dogs in either pedigree there is a good chance your pup will hit 15".

A friend and I bought littermate pups at 8 weeks old. At the time of purchase they were the same size. At 6 months mine was alot bigger. His could almost walk under mine. At 2 years old both were measured at 14 3/4 inches.
