Puppy growth chart

Track your puppy's growth against breed-standard weight ranges. Enter your puppy's breed, age, and current weight to see how they compare.

How growth tracking works

The growth chart plots your puppy's current weight against the breed-standard adult weight range from AKC breed standards. It estimates your puppy's projected adult weight based on the typical growth curve for their size class.

Small breeds reach adult weight by 10-12 months. Medium breeds by 12-15 months. Large breeds by 15-18 months. Giant breeds may not reach full adult weight until 18-24 months. These are averages; individual puppies grow at different rates.

Growth charts are estimates, not predictions. Factors including genetics, nutrition, spay/neuter timing, and health conditions all influence final adult size. Consult your veterinarian if your puppy's growth seems significantly above or below the expected range for their breed.
