    Height is measured at the highest point of the withers, right at the base of the neck with the dog standing square on a firm surface.

    It helps to stand the dog near a wall, with the yardstick against the wall, and then another ruler to put at the withers to see exactly how tall the dog is.

    If the dog is coated, allow for coat.

    The red line on this image goes through the withers on the dog on the right. It is slightly below the withers on the dog on the left.

    Last time the Rock was weighed he was 125 pounds.
    I have not measured him in awhile but If I recall he was about 27 at the
    withers.

    I will have to weigh them all again as a few have gained a little weight. Ripley-since he can no longer do sports he has turned into a porker lol and Misty-until I can get er back fixed I cant exersize her much are the 2 main ones that I know have put on some weight.

    mine are as follows:

    Happy-21"-35lbs(perfect)
    Misty-18"-40lbs(should be 30lbs!)
    Electra-17"-35lbs(perfect)
    Rusty-15"-15lbs(perfect)
    Perky-12"-26lbs(should be 22lbs)
    Ripley-13"-20lbs(should be 18lbs)

    man, I REALLY gotta get Mistys back fixed so I can exersize her properly, 10lbs over is awful!

    Eli weighs 68lbs, 26"
    Bunny is around 50lbs, 20" and
    Zeke is about 75lbs, 22".

    We weighed Eli at Petsmart on Sunday, so Im positive on his weight, but the other two are an estimate. They are pretty consistent with their weights though. Was glad to see that Eli has gained a few more pounds... He's at a good weight now. Not sure when he'll stop growing, as his mom was 70lbs and his dad was around 90lbs. Guess his breeder likes BIG boxers.. (We didnt purchase him from them.. keep in mind.) Heights are estimates, as none of them would hold still while standing... Scary tape measure...

    They all would be at pretty ideal weights for their body structures.
    I wish someone would measure out my daily food... .. lol.

    Bunny: BoxerxSheppard mix, Eli: Boxer, Treo: Boxer
    Zeke [RB]: RottweilerxAustrailian Cattle Dog mix

    Ginger is right around 17" and the last time I weighed her she was 36.5 lbs (at vet's). However, it has been a while so I picked her up and weighed her tonight, the same way you did. She came out at 40 pounds. We both seriously need to get more active.

    Gonzo is 19" and 34 lbs.
    Fozzie is 14" and 38 lbs... of PURE MUSCLE.

    They are both at their ideal weights. Fozzie is double his height in length, after all. He definitely has a waist, and even though I can only palpate his ribs a little, he just isn't meant to be a super lean dog. Gonzo, on the other hand, you can easily feel his ribs and spine.

    Thank you so much for this drawing. I pretty much knew where I was supposed to measure but just never for sure. Now I'll have to try and take some time to measure and weigh them. Like I told Anna on the phone I'm a bit embarrassed to post Tori's weight...lol. Compared to the other huskies on here she is sooooo fat..lol. I'm embarrassed for my little girl. The doc is constantly telling me that she isn't, that it is just the way she is built but I stilll think she is fat..lol. She takes after her mama
