    My dog comes from small lines, I admit, but even its parents weren't this small at its age. Its mother weighs just over 30lbs, while its father is 40lbs. Right not, it's 7 months old, 14.8 inches tall and 12 pounds. It's healthy and athletic, but I'm just wondering if there's a possiblity that it might not get much bigger than it is now - like just staying about 20lb? 100_2498.jpg

    Picture of it above.

    he/she is still a pup. let him/her develop its size and weight. give it time i would say about another year. he/she should grow some but if he/she comes from a small line of dogs dont expect a lot

    A full grown dog that size is to small but your dog will get bigger. I have a bunch of females under 30, don't want that issue anymore

    Runt, simply means the smallest pup in its litter... Nothing to do with being inbred...

    Yep I know what runt mean. I was simply correcting the guy above when he suggested that they might've been inbred.

    Colby/Jeep/Sorrels/Red boy. Not one particular bloodline, more like an amalgation of all. Pure pitbull, just petite.

    Oic... So is she the runt?

    Surprisingly no, but she ended up growing to be the smallest in the litter. I also have the runt (her brother), and he's almost twice her size (lol). His pic:

    Still short though.

    Lol, I know. I started getting a bit worried when I saw that it wasn't getting bigger lol, but I got over it eventually when I saw some other small game dogs (usually in the 25 to 30lb range)

    My estimate is that she will get to about 20lb at most.
    I am assuming she is registered and not just word of mouth pure bred

    Cute little thing.

    My 3 month old Double Bred El Negro pup was at 17 lbs. Granted he aint none to lean, but also not pig fat. 12 lbs is usually 8-12 week weight on average APBT's

    Not trying to be a jerk but did the guy own a JRT or similar? Cause them pups look strikingly similar to my sisters JRT. Strange shit happens and if he had one get to a female even if it was bred to a bulldog.....part of the litter can be mixed.
