Is my 4-month-old puppy's 46 lb weight normal or overweight?

Question

My ghontu is 46 lbs now.I have measured her today, she is about 19 weeks old and seems to be growing everyday.Does she weigh normal or she's overweight? Kindly suggest. Pet's info: Dog | Golden Retriever | Female | 4 months and 14 days old | 57 lbs

Because Ghontu is a Golden Retriever, her full weight can be between 65-75 pounds. At about five months of age (19 weeks), she should be around 3/4s of her full grown weight, and her weight of 46 pounds is normal. It is expected that she will continue to grow every day, and I would not be concerned about her weight.
