Everytime Pumpkin got weighed at the vet's we came home and plotted it on a graph. After a couple of months we extrapolated a growth curve that indicated that she would be about 50 lbs. and sure enough, she is!

Yeah Nellie weighed 53 pounds last week at the vet. She is 7 months old now. We do not feed our dogs ANYTHING extra at all. (Except for some treats here and there) Her parents were pretty big dogs. Striker weighs 63, he doesn't seem like he eats that much compared to Nellie, but he isn't too skinny. I hear that the girls grow faster than the boys. I dunno. Striker's mom was 65-70 pounds and his Dad was 85.

I hate to see people whose boxers are huge, and they are so proud, but wouldn't you worry about their health more??? I would rather keep my dogs on a dog food diet, and have them fill in naturally, as time progresses, then for them to be big. I have heard that many boxers still grow and fill in till they are 3 years old.

Liberty is 43 pound and she is 1 yr and 2 months. Some boxers grow a bit slower then others. Boxers ushally have their height by 1 year maybe a little over but it can take till they are 2-3 years to completley fill out.
