My question is are they done growing?? Hes so small compared to them :( they look like him but huge. Not the fat huge but buff huge.

At 13 months of age, Yoda may grow just a bit more, but he is mostly done growing. Some dogs are just smaller in stature than others, regardless of having the same genetic background. It is unusual that Yoda (being a male) is smaller than his sister, but genes can do crazy things. Sixty pounds of muscle is still a pretty big dog! :-)
