That's like almost a person. Normous gurt big beast.

What kind of dog do you have?

flatmouse · 14/05/2014 21:50

Mine is 40kg - good weight for him. Embarrassingly he had got to 48kg, but has lost 8kg over the last year. Skinny boy now!

AtYourCervix · 14/05/2014 21:56

He's a maremma (obscure italian breed) big and white. I adore him but he is bloody huge.

Just googled, beautiful creatures.

SecretNutellaFix · 15/05/2014 20:55

I wouldn't like to be "welcomed" by him. I love how they look though.

Maremma's are lovely ....... my dog is 58kg and is lean....Mountain dog - big soppy teddy bear, would love to sit in my lap every night.....but then I can't breathe.....

Wolfiefan · 15/05/2014 21:07

I too googled! I'm guessing there is lots of shedding.

AtYourCervix · 15/05/2014 21:19

Yes he sheds. But loves being brushed so it is mostly under control. Just need those sticky rollers dotted around.

He's bloody lazy too. After a couple of miles he stops and looks at me in umbrage.

58kg is HUGE!

58kg is big as someone who regularly sees fit healthy dogs at 86kgs it's peanuts. I removed a pyo from a giant breed last week, the uterus weighed in at 2kg by itself.

HavantGuard · 15/05/2014 22:14

I don't believe you.

Lonecatwithkitten · 15/05/2014 22:45

Leonbergers I don't think I need go further. Sorry no pictures.

Owllady · 16/05/2014 14:25

We train with a young Newfoundland and it makes my dog look handbag sized :o

mrslaughan · 16/05/2014 21:48

Oh yes- mine is a small giant.......he looks labrador size, compared with a leonburger, Saint Bernard, or a Great Dane...but I still sometimes think we're mad

ArcherAnguish · 16/05/2014 21:55

We have a 53kg Newfie, she makes our two labs look tiny! Our old St Bernard was around 75kg at a her biggest.

Wolfiefan · 16/05/2014 21:57

Guess what dog I pine for? (Check my name!!)
Grin

ArcherAnguish · 16/05/2014 21:58

I would love a Wolfie - fantastic dogs!

My DDog is currently weighing in at 46kg and is still a puppy.

How do you find walking your big breeds? I trust her and she adores me and walks well on lead and recently on long lead but I'm still nervous of other dogs and in reality she "could" pull me over if she found a good reason.

I have two GSDs, each who are at least that in weight.

Only problem is one of them really believes he is a lap dog.

WolfAndMud · 19/05/2014 14:39

That's huge (and lovely), our pup weighed in at 15kg today. He's 18 weeks.
Going to be a big boy....
