Forum Rules
1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect.
2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff.
3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned.
4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.

So Luna is 6 1/2 months old and I took her into Petsmart today and put her on their dog scale. It said she weighs 45 pounds! I was super surprised because she's still short, a little less than knee height and smaller then the other Husky in the neighborhood. I know they don't get much bigger but i'm wondering do you think she is going to grow a lot more?

huskies will grow till they are about 2yrs old, best indicator would be what were the parents like?

Sierra is only 47lbs at 9.5yrs old, she is husky standard as far has height and length go.

Ghost was 35 lbs at 6 months, and I want to say 18" tall (I don't remember exactly though). At 18 months, she's ~23" tall and was 43 lbs when we had her at the vet on Tuesday. She will probably gain a few inches yet, but shouldn't gain a ton more weight. Ghost is SUPER skinny right now even though she eats 2.5 cups of food per day, but I anticipate she'll put on another 5 lbs or so as she fills out.

As Jenn said, a lot of it does depend on the parents. Ghost's were both on the larger side, but not huge, so if you saw them you should have at least a ballpark idea.

"Being the parent of a special-needs pet means living your life constantly poised on the edge of a double-edged sword. On the one hand, you become a fierce defender of the ways in which your little one is perfectly ordinary — all the things he or she can do that are just like what everybody else does. And yet, you never lose sight of how absolutely extraordinary that very ordinariness is, how difficult, remarkable and rewarding that fight to be 'just like everybody else' has been."  -Gwen Cooper, "Homer's Odyssey"

now you have me wondering how big Stig will be.
right now (4 mths 3 weeks) he is 22 inches to the top of the should er and 51 lbs.... any guesses as to how large he will be? Bare in mind we don't know the parents, as we adopted Stig after he was found along side the road at 1-2 weeks old.

Balon was 46.4 lbs at the vet last week. He is under 9 months old. I haven't measured his height, but he seems normal to me lol
