breed standard is 45-55 pounds

he's 9 1/2 months old

and his growth has slowed down so he's only gaining a pound every 2-3 weeks.

last night I weighed him at 60 pounds...

he eats more than the malabrute he was sitting next to in the one pic

Think he is almost done?

I figure he's got another 5 months of growing left

and hope he stops before the 70 pound mark

I'm sooo glad we didn't name him after a mountain!

813 to go

This is Charlie and Denali from 5 years ago:

Could have named him Pike
