What does a 4-month Standard Schnauzer weigh?
At 4 months, the typical Standard Schnauzer is about half the size of their adult weight. That means males can weigh anywhere from 17.5 to 25 pounds, while females will be a bit smaller at 15 to 22.5 pounds. This is a rough estimate. It is normal for puppies to fall outside of this range, and it doesn’t necessarily mean that anything is wrong.Â
All puppies grow at their own rate. Some may be smaller at four months, but may hit a growth spurt and gain a considerable amount of weight. It isn’t odd for puppies to grow on their own schedule. Most do not grow along some predetermined curve.Â
With that said, predicting a dog’s adult weight is typically pretty easy at four months of age. At this point, the puppy has been growing independently for some time. Smaller dogs are likely to stay on the smaller side, while large dogs will probably stay large.Â
Your puppy’s growth will probably slow down at this point. However, their growth will likely continue at a significant rate until at least six months.
