Does a Larger Head on a Puppy Mean a Larger Adult Rott?

My rott puppy doesn't appear to have the classic large Rott head. Do smaller heads mean smaller adults?

For adult head and body size you should look more at the parents to determine how the pup will most likely turn out.

How old is he/she? Did you see the heads on his/her parents?

Skull development is genetic, your puppy should end up with a head that bears similiarity to his parents. And, more than likely, if he/she has a smaller head, his body will be in proportion to it.

Even if he does not end up having a large head and big body, you will still have his wonderful companionship for years, cherish that!
