My Aussie puppy is 17 weeks old and already weighs 40lbs. The vet says he’s 100% hearty healthy. This still seems to be much larger than any other 17 week old Aussie I’ve ever seen. He is AKC registered but recently I’ve seen pictures of Aussie-Bernese mountain dog mixes that look suspiciously like adult versions of my Groot. Is this a possible over sight or do I just have a big boy.

I’m 100% positive of the accuracy of the his weight. I weigh him personally every week, and we’ve had him at the vets for general care recently. When we purchased him, he was 10 weeks old and weighed 20lbs. I know and have seen make Aussies up to 80lbs, but at the rate Groot is growing, he will be there at 8 months. Like I said, the vet is saying he’s just a big boy.
