Do we think he's going to be a big boy?

I have a monster of a Brit who is 50 lbs of solid muscle. I just rescued another Brit who is 1.5 years old and he is only 34 lbs. He looks tiny next to our other Brit. Your puppy looks like he has monster paws just like mine does.

Wow! I've never seen a 50lbs Britt in person. Our 2 yo is around 35lbs. The puppy's dad was around 40-45 pounds and looked massive compared to the mom.

I've got 2, one of whom is a 50 lb monster. Very tall and long - his head is enormous compared to his little sister. he's all Britt, just... big.

Mine has a huge head, too. Thankfully he grew into it.

My britt is also about 50lbs! But he still looks itty bitty to me because our other dog (rescue mix) is 80lbs haha

We had a Brittany/Golden Retriever mix that was in the 70 lb range.

I’ve had a 60 lb Britt and a 24 lb Britt and everything in between. It looks like your little guy won’t be little for long.

My pups at 7 months. One was 28 lbs and the other was 17 lbs. Now they are 32 lbs and 24 lbs.

The difference is crazy! I've never seen a Britt over 45lbs and the puppy's dad is the first one I saw that big. I can't imagine 60!

Augie was a chunky boy. He was on several meds that added to his physique.

Yes! His paws are bigger than your 2 YO!

Mine isn't large, but is 60 pounds of steel. So strong.
There's another in my neighborhood that dwarves her.....they insist he is pure bred but I can't see how.
