Can anyone tell me how much their Sheltie puppy weighed at 9 weeks? Ours got weighed today at the vet and Theo weighed 3.6 while Lily weighed 5.2lbs. I'm just wanting to make sure the dad wasn't bigger than a sheltie.
 
Sounds pretty small. I don't have any 9 week info, but at 14 weeks, Lexi was 9 pounds. (She's now 1 and weighs 15 pounds)
 
no one of those is a small weight, I have my chart here somewhere with weights each week...I'll have to see what drawer I stuck it in when I cleaned..but if I remember correctly they were around 6 pounds

Oh, okay, interesting. How big is your sheltie now that weighed 6lbs then?
 
Mine was 10.01 lbs at 10 weeks and recently when I took her to the vet she weight 12.02 lbs at 12 weeks and 3 days.

Do I have a sheltie thats gonna be big?
 
Leo was 6 lbs at 13 weeks, 4.5 lbs at 9 weeks. Che was 8.6 lbs at 8 weeks and is 38.6 lbs now at 13 months.
Leo will be staying on smaller side as he "does not have enough substance" but will probably make it insize.
 
Ember was 3.9 lbs at 9 wks and 16 lbs now(should be 14.5lbs) She is light boned. Diva was 4.4 lbs at 8 wks and 19.5lb, heavier boned than Ember. The 5 wks pups are all around 3lbs 9 oz. They had tons of bone but don't seem too overly big otherwise.

I read that 6lbs at 6wks is usually an oversized sheltie. So your pups don't seem too big.

I think Emma was around 8.3 pounds at 10 or ll weeks. She was about 22 pounds when she was spayed at 7 months. She is a little heavier now, but I am working on getting some off her.

Liam was 15.3 when he was spayed last week at 10.5 months. I don't think he will be really heavy. He is about the same height as Emma now.

okay...good! They started growing so fast alll of a sudden! Lily is really tall already and has the longest nose, she def looks the most sheltie-like. I dont reaally feel like theo is growing. Theo looks identical to a Havanese puppy. His feet are so danty.
