Correct Size/Weight for Age?

[frontierrots]

Most rottweilers grow in height til 18 months
Most people who are not experienced show people have alot of trouble getting a good measurement. It is often too much or too little as the dog needs to be standing just so and the measuement taken at the right place.

Minimum height to show a bitch is 22 " and most bitches that height weigh 70 to 80 lbs at full maturity

However I have seen purebred rottweiler bitches as small as 19" and 50 lbs as an adult and some as large as 28" 140 lbs!!! There is alot of varience depending upon lines and general genetics

Don't worry about her height unless you plan to show her in conformation

My seven month old female is 20" high and weighs 51 lbs. Is this consider undersize? I am not sure where to measure her but I measured her at shoulders and back. I think she is a great size and hope to do agility.

Thank you for your replys. Jena and I have no plans to do conformation. We are in basic obedience and I hope to get a CGC and hopefuly a CD.
I saw her parents and both of them were about
90-100 lbs. She is a beautiful girl. I will enjoy her no matter what her size.
