6 Month old weight?

I just read a post about weight, so I thought I'd ask my question. My pup is 6 1/2 months old and we just weighed her today. She is 73.5 lbs. Now, mind you she is at her lanky, all legs stage. She is definitely not overweight. When will she stop growing in height and weight? I seem to remember our other Rott growing well into her 2nd year. Asia's mother was about 75 lbs. and her dad was about 120.
Thanks........Mary

You're right. Rotts do continute their growth and final filling out until about age 2. Your girl could be on the tall side. As you said she's lanky and not overweight. Have you measured her height at the shoulder? It would be interesting to know.
Sable is almost 11 months old, 23 inches; 68 lbs. They all grow at slightly different rates. I'm sure your girl is right where she should be for 6 months. The father at 120 is a bit heavy, but perhaps he's taller than the standard? (24-27in-male; 22-25in-female)

;)

Not a girl but.......

My Sajan is five months old and weighs 54 pounds. He is growing at a nice slow steady pace. His dad is 130 pounds and his mom is 100 pounds. Sajan is not really tall yet but he is getting quite muscular. I haven't checked his height lately, so I don't know exactly how tall he is.
