This dog weight predictor estimates adult size using age-based growth curves for four classes. It calculates the percent of adult weight already reached, then projects a realistic range.
Faster early growth and earlier maturity. Most reach near-adult size by around 8-12 months.
Steady growth pattern with most weight gain slowing by 12 months.
Longer growth period. Weight often continues to increase until 15-18 months.
Longest growth curve. Some giant breeds keep filling out until roughly 18-24 months.
Breed examples: Yorkie, Chihuahua, Labrador, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, and Great Dane puppies can all follow different growth rates even inside the same size class.
It is an informed estimate, not a diagnosis. Accuracy depends on breed genetics, diet, activity, and health. The best window is usually 12-40 weeks.
Use your puppy's current weight, age, and size class. The calculator returns an adult range plus a midpoint. This is a practical puppy size estimator, not an exact final value.
Small breeds often finish by 8-12 months, medium breeds around 12 months, large breeds 15-18 months, and giant breeds can continue up to 24 months.
You get an estimated adult range in kg and lb, plus a midpoint. The midpoint is useful for planning food portions and tracking growth trends over time.
Yes. Standard puppy weight charts are generic, while this tool uses your age and current weight inputs to give a tailored estimate.
No calculator can guarantee exact adult size. Use the provided range and consult your vet for personalised guidance.
