Cute puppy! I wonder if she has some herding breed in her with those white feet... At this age it's pretty tough to offer any kind of accurate guess. There's no perfect prediction, but a general guideline is that at 3 months of age (~12 weeks) puppies tend to be about 1/3 of their adult weight, and at 4 months of age (~16 weeks) they tend to be about 1/2 of their adult weight. So, if you hold off a few more weeks, once Luna is about 3 months old we can start to get a bit of a better idea! Hope that helps!
