There is no average length for any breed on file, but the average height for German Shepherds is 1 foot, 10 inches to 2 feet, 2 inches tall at the shoulder, and average weight is 75-95 lbs. You can find more information on this breed and any other breed at http://dogtime.com/dog-breeds/german-shepherd-dog#/slide/1 German Shephards are leaner dogs by nature. Have your vet evaluate your pets body condition score if you have concerns about proper weight gain or you can reference this website as a guideline. https://www.wsava.org/WSAVA/media/PDF_old/Body-condition-score-chart-dogs.pdf I hope this helps and best of luck with your pet Bruno! Take care.
