Can Barley maybe go on a diet or something. Did the vet check for maybe a underline problem to the fast weight gain like a on-set of a thyroid disease.  I am not sure I understand the chart you mentioned  does it mean if a pup weighs a certain amount at a certain age then he/she will weigh so much at adulthood.

Well, a bit disappointed in Barley's puppy check yesterday. He went to the vet for a well puppy check and for his last set of puppy shots. When I got him three weeks ago, he was at 1 pound, 5 oz...thus charting between 3 1/2 to 4 pounds grown. NOW, he weighs 3 pound 5 oz (a 2 pound gain in 3 weeks!!) and is charting at 6 pounds!!!
 
Now, I know that the weight chart is not precise, but it can be a pretty good guideline. If he gets anywhere near this big, then he certainly can not be bred to Ginger. I was not sure that I would ever be able to breed him anyways because I am not sure how good quality he is gonna turn out to be, but if he gets this big, then there is no doubt he wont be bred.
 
I can't figure out for the life of me how he managed to put on that much weight that fast, but geeeee! Soooo, I am disappointed. I have been disappointed in him as a potential stud every since I got him, but remain happy with the effect he had on Ginger. But still, I need an appropriate stud!!! sighhhhhh.
 
Otherwise, his health check was well.
