Ryder's growing up! (6 months)

He sure is growing up. Do you know how large he'll end up getting? Will he stop growing when he's a year old or will he still continue to grow for a while longer? Some breeds of cats take several years to mature, I don't know if this is the same for some breeds of dogs too.

Not sure! He won't fully mature by the time he is 2 years old. We will take him to the vet soon to get him weighed so we can give him his heartworm preventative medication. Hopefully next week, I'll know for how much he weighs. I want to guess between 45-50lbs. He is a little over 6 months old. Now his parents were big, but they were short and stocky. Ryder will be the same. I want to guess, he will be between 80-90lbs full grown? We'll see. I do miss those days where I can hold him and cuddle, now, not so much. He's starting to get more "I am going to lay on the floor and sleep" rather than on the couch like he used to so often, but he still will do that... I just need to get him a dog bed.
