    LOOKS FINE TO ME - agree with everything above! I could be wrong...but I thought that vet techs are still in school learning. I could be wrong though.

    Cooper looks great! Looks very similar in build to both Bacon and his father. Muscular and fit!

    Thanks...I feel he is in great shape. ..you can see his muscles in his legs moving when he walks. His weight has been pretty stable fluctuating by a few pounds since he has been full grown.

    Thank you all for reassuring me....certainly makes me feel better

    If he dropped 5 lbs he would be emaciated. The vet tech needs an education. Your boy's weight is fine.

    Thank you...my thought exactly!! I haven't met this Vet tech before...not so sure how confident I am in her giving advice/answering questions. I think I will stick to the Vet Techs I know and my Vet!!!!

    I think my 8 month old might be a little too slim and so I am feeding him more - but your dog looks perfect to me! Crazy!

    This is what I think too. And I think he could still put on a 1-2kgs and still be in fine form as he doesn't even look like he is on the edge of being overweight.
