I thought they were too, but my neighbors got one and she stayed really small. I would have thought she was a mix or something if they hadn't got her from an AKC breeder. I think it's show vs. working.

I have a golden puppy and he is 5 months old. He only weighs a little over thirty pounds. I have been told that some goldens already weigh 50 lbs by this time. Do I have a runt, or do all dogs grow at different times? I was really hoping for a big dog, at least 65-75 poounds, but I'm thinkin I'm going to be disappointed.

Please, if your dog is arthritic look into getting it Elk Velvet Antler. Look up my posts on it, PM me, or look it up on a search engine; but please if you love your dog and want it to live many more years consider this option. I've seen so many posts on here about dogs needlessly suffering. I can't make a new post about EVA every time so this plea is going here. EVA also helps with other ailments such as anemia.
