Hello dear vet, is there a way to predict Coco’s weight and height according to her parents stats. Dad is 24’ tall, 65lbs; Mom is 23’, 55lbs. Coco is now 12 weeks old, 14 lbs. Thanks. Both the parents are purebred standard poodle.

Coco will likely weigh around 55 to 60lbs, her height should be around 23 to 24 inches tall. Of course dogs are not machines, and this is just an average guess at height and weight. There are always exceptions to the norm, ie smaller or taller than the average prediction, weight will depend ,, of course, on muscle mass and fat.
