When do they stop growing?

[RacerMike]

For those of you with mature boxers, we are just curious as to how old they were when you stopped seeing noticeable growth. Tyson is about 7.5 months old and he doesn't seem to be growing much anymore; we realize this could be perception since we see him everyday. He is about 50 lbs or so and has been for about a month. Did anyone experience a second growth "spurt" and if so at what age??

Basically, we are trying to figure out when Tyson will be full grown.

BTW, uploaded a few pictures to our gallery last week if anyone cares to look; they are about 2 months old and he was about 40lbs.

Thanks,

Mike

They grown in height until about a year of age. They will continue to fill out until they are 2 -3.

I to was curious about this also. Suge's growth slowed down drasticaly after about 6months of age. He was then 50lbs on the dot. Now hes 9months and is about 55lbs im guessing, the weight is being put on very very slowly now. Maybe they just have growth spurts through out there life until done growthing.

First, I have to say that Tyson is so adorable! He seems to love to chew sticks as much as Mugsy.

Second, our vet told us (but he could be wrong) that Mugsy will grow to his full height by the time he is 2. He will fill out (especially in his chest) by the time he is 3. Both parents were present when we picked up Mugsy from the breeder. They were 95lbs and 80lbs, so we are assuming that Mugsy will be anywhere from 70-90lbs. Right now, he is 65lbs and is a year old. He keeps having growing spurts where he cries for food at odd hours and I have to let his collar out.

When he was 7 months, I didn't notice a huge growth spurt until about 10 or 11 months.

Took a look at the pictures at the beach. He's a beaut! We live near the beach in New Jersey. Rommel loves the sand and chasing the waves.

Basil is now 15 months old and weighs in at 70lbs (and still filling out). He held steady around 60 lbs from 9 months to about 1 year and then he had a spurt. I think he's as tall as he'll get but he's still going to fill out.
