    Calling All You GSD People - wight of 5 week old pup?

    Just out of interest what weight in lbs would you expect a male pup to weigh at just 5 weeks old?
    I know they all vary, but roughly.

    I suppose it differs because when I was looking at GSDs about 8 years ago we saw some puppies that were quite small and had little spindley tails and we saw some puppies that were really big and looked just like a miniature GSD. My Sabre was 12 weeks old when we brought him home and weighed around 2 1/2 stone - even the vet couldn't believe he was only 12 weeks because he looked so mature for his age.:)

    The scale is right for continental breeding, which I have but some of the English lines can be between 45kg and 55kg as an adult. Whereas European line males tend to be between 35kg and 42kg as an adult male.
