There is not a good way for me to answer this question. Mixed breed dogs can vary in weight widely so there is not a blanket statement that a puppy of this mix should weigh a certain amount at X months of age. It would be best to ask your vet that has examined Zoe in person this question as they can evaluate her bone structure, etc and tell you if her weight is good. All I can tell you is that, on average, these Zuchon dogs should be about 9- 18 pounds as an adult.
