Andi: What is the size of a Newfoundland at each month? I was just curious because I am planning on getting one this summer. At each month, how big would it be up until it's adulthood? And what weight also. Answers and Views: Answer by All about the bullie The average weight for an adult Newfie is usually around 130-150 lbs depending on the gender, activity level, and pedigree of the individual animal...

Answer by Debbie D There is no way to know for sure how much your Newf will weigh each month. Each dog grows at its own pace (like people), and not all dogs from the same litter will end up weighing the same anyway. My Newf weighed 20 lbs at eight weeks and ended up weighing 150 lbs as an adult. As long as it's growing and healthy, the exact weight at each month is not a concern.

A chart developed by Dr. Abramson Miri, Israel, goes into detail. 1 month - 11 pounds, 2 months - 22 pounds, 3 months - 40 pounds, 4 months - 64 pounds, 5 months - 79 pounds, 6 months - 88 pounds, 7 months - 101 pounds, 8 months - 108 pounds, 9 months - 112 pounds, 10 months - 115 pounds, 11 months - 117 pounds, 12 months - 119 pounds Keep in mind that a Newfoundland puppy may not reach his adult size until he is 18 months old. Puppies of large breeds are most affected by the feeding regime and most prone to disturbances in their skeletal growth. It is all-important that they receive the right quantities of calories and nutrients. Puppy owners often try to feed their Newfoundland puppy as much as he will eat. Because of that many dogs tend to overeat, and this could have damaging effects on your puppy’s health. Know better? Give your own answer to this question!
