Radar: 85 pounds, and counting.

Quick Math (and, a note for my sister, this IS estimation math!):

55 pounds @ 4 months
85 pounds @ 6.5 months

That's 30 pounds in 10 weeks which equals 3 pounds a week. So, if you figure a dog grows during the first 12 months (at least), we have 5.5 months until then which equals 22 weeks, roughly.

22 x 3 = 66 more pounds.

85 + 66 = 151 pounds.

Oh my, what have we done?

Your dog is going to weigh as much as a teenager!!! That's just during the terrible twos.

No - I believe estimation would be 85 + 85 = 200 :)

Yikes. That estimation math is scary! I'll stick with the original guess!
