    Funny thing happened today.
    My wife took down the old 2016 Chihuahua calendar and put up a 2017 Mastiff calendar.
    Our Chihuahua (guacamole) saw it and stated barking at it. Not quite sure if Guacamole didn’t like looking at the Mastiff or was mad we didn’t replace the calendar with another Chihuahua calendar.
    I tried getting a video but she left the room.

    Ryan, those are some great shots of Ripley. I love the last one. He’s getting so big already!

    He’s a growing boy, that’s for sure! Fritz and Remi are about 65 lbs. How big do you anticipate Ripley to get?

    80 – 85 lbs was his breeders educated guess. Most of the litter is about the same weight now.

    This is an excerpt from the GSP breed standard, so he’s a bit on the small side. Less food and poop, right? rotflol

    Size, Proportion, Substance: Size-height of dogs, measured at the withers, 23 to 25 inches. Height of bitches, measured at the withers, 21 to 23 inches. Deviations of one inch above or below the described heights are to be severely penalized. Weight of dogs 55 to 70 pounds. Weight of bitches 45 to 60 pounds.
