    They are all very different!

    At 4 months Charlie weighed 17kg - but then he slowed down gaining (which is good, you want them to grow slowly so their joints develop properly).

    At about 6.5 months he was 25kgs, and stayed at that until 7 months, even though he bulked up in muscle. I reckon he is probably 27 - 29 kgs now at nearly 9 months (he gets weighed next Wednesday).

    I really don't want him too end up too heavy, it's not good, I think. He is 100% show (so not massively tall) and his uncle weighs close to 38kgs fully grown (and is not fat). I hope Charlie will be lighter, his mother was, so fingers crossed.

    Puzzle is 5 1/2 months old, and weighs 19.5kg, so i know how you feel. I will have a look and see if i can find any records of how much she weighed when she was 18 weeks old.

    Just found it at 19 weeks old she weighed 18kg, so i think taht your boy is doing fine, as she is a little on the chubby side with all of her puppy fat, but she still has a waist line.

    Dex is nearly 14 months and he is perfect at 23 kgs! He's only a small build....he's been 25 kgs and looked tubby and he was just below 22 when he was poorly with,his tail and he looked skinny and drawn ....
    When you read all the replies that come back it will,fascinate you how they are all Labradors but all so different ;D

    That's what Brew was at that age too. She's grown lots since, and it's all leg...

    When they are both fully grown Charlie and Jasper will have to have a weigh-off to see who ends up being the biggest boy on the block. ;)

    At 20 months and around 26kg at last count, Obi is well out of the competition :)

    I hope we don't win! Jasper looks tall and I think is field bred? A bit like Kate's Sam. Charlie is all show chunk...so I'm hoping for a lighter dog. Here's Sam and Charlie together.

    For all Sam's weightiness, he's a tall, slim lad...

    a vet visit this week to get him weighed, i worry about his weight with having the elbow trouble,.....we have cut his food down,
    to me he seems fine, i don't want him to get fat, the vet said from him being 8 week old, he would be the top end of the lab sizes x

    I want to see that.....I reckon Sam will get in with at least an honourable mention too.....

    Riley(25kgs 2.5 yearsold) and Obi can hang out at the weaner end of the scale with the small black dog :D

    Obi says that he's more than happy to hang out with the weaner crowd. Dexter is also invited.

    I just went to see what he was up to and found him cuddling up to the entertainment unit. Odd.

    I think Poppy is the smallest of all of them and may be the Queen of the Weaner Group (despite the muffin tops ;) ) - she weighs a maximum of 25 kg.

    Bless Obi! Charlie does the same. When he's hot - I wondered if the wood was cool but it doesn't seem to me to be cool. ::)

    At 14 weeks oscar was 9 and a half Kilos, his parents are working line and his dad was quite chunky so i wouldn't be surprised if he is the same! Though reading the weights of the labs on here is an eye opener!
