Maltipoo Puppy Weight - Orihime

(Alexandria, Va.)

My Maltipoo puppy is 6 months and she is tall. When I got her at 8wks she was probably 4-6 lbs and slowly put on weight. She is double the size of a normal sized Maltipoo. Last time I weighed her she was 11.5 lbs (March). As of now I believe she has gone up in weight and might be 15lbs or a lb over (idk). I was told by my vet that, that will be her max since she's a tall Maltipoo. She doesn't over eat and I have her on Nutra (dry food) and sometimes mix it with canned food (which she loves!). After reading Lucy's post about her pups weight I feel a bit better. I thought I had an obese pup :-) and was getting scared after reading the article and looking at the puppy weight table. I believe as long as your dog gets enough exercise that they need you should be fine. Now I have to maintain her weight whatever it is.
