Charlie keeps growing. He is a healthy puppy whose weight was about 5 to 6 pounds when we adopted him January 18, 2010 to over 10 pounds in mid-March. The web searches say to get a non-scientific adult weight estimate double the weight at 14 weeks. It should be about 20 pounds as the original owners vet determined. We shall see for real soon since small dogs tend to reach their adult size quicker than medium and large breeds.
He had a puppy grooming at Petsmart to trim around his eyes, back side and paws. He received a nail clipping also at the end of February. Friday he gets a full grooming. We are having him trimmed down to about one inch to get him prepped for his neutering scheduled for Monday. This will keep him cleaner cut for a little longer around his lower area and less need to run back for a grooming while waiting for his site to heal and stitches to dissolve. The Petsmart groomers said that they will not groom him if any stitches are showing even if it is months since his surgery. Therefore, I figured I'll give him a bit longer to between grooming and hope all heals well. Hope to not have to have stitches taken out.
