Porcelaine Growth

Did you just get the Porcelaine puppy? And do you want to know when your Porcelaine will stop growing and how big your Porcelaine will get? Or do you want to know if your Porcelaine is of the ideal weight for its age?

In this article, we will answer all these relevant questions related to Porcelaine growth and weight.

If you do not own the Porcelaine yet, make sure you purchase your Porcelaine from an reputable Porcelaine breeder. Also, check out our Porcelaine buying guide and Porcelaine price guide here.

You can also work with a reputable rescue to adopt a puppy.

It is important for you as a caring Porcelaine owner to know if your Porcelaine is growing normally and that your Porcelaine is not overweight or underweight.

Extensive research studies have shown that most dogs are overweight because their owners spoil them with food, treats, and easy life styles. Most dogs eat way too much and do not get enough exercise. Research has also shown that one of the reasons many dogs die young is because they are overweight. However, you can extend your dog`s life by making sure your dog is of healthy weight and growth.

One final reason to keep track of your Porcelaine`s weight and growth is that your Porcelaine`s weight and growth pattern can tell you if your Porcelaine has some underlying health conditions (such as bone, heart, hormone diseases). This is what recent research has shown.

This article contains the Porcelaine growth calculator that you can use to predict your Porcelaine`s adult weight. This article also contains the Porcelaine growth chart and weight calculator that you can use to approximately tell if your Porcelaine`s weight is in the normal range.

However, the more accurate method to predict and track normal growth in your Porcelaine is by regularly weighing your Porcelaine and recording the weight of your Porcelaine with our free dog weight tracker and weight predictor. Our tool will tell you, first, a more accurate future weight of your Porcelaine and, second, if your Porcelaine is growing normally.

We designed our dog weight tracker and weight predictor based on a recent research study carried out by researchers from Banfield Pet Hospitals and the University of Liverpool. This study collected and analyzed the weight of over 6 million healthy dogs in the United States. The dogs studied included dogs in the Porcelaine weight category.

Also, check out our Porcelaine food calculator here to know how much food to feed your Porcelaine based on your Porcelaine`s weight and age.

Porcelaine Weight and Growth Chart

Below is the typical growth chart and weight chart of Porcelaines at different stages in their lives.

Note that your Porcelaine may be slightly heavier or lighter than what the chart says. The weight chart is an average weight chart.

Also, this growth chart is the combined growth chart of the male and female Porcelaine.

When do Porcelaines Stop Growing and How Big Do They Get?

Your Porcelaine will grow very fast in its first 44 weeks. At 44 weeks, your Porcelaine will have reached 95 percent of its adult weight. Then your Porcelaine will slowly stop adding more weight. At around 57 weeks (~13 months), your Porcelaine should be at its maximum weight. Porcelaines stop growing at 57 weeks (~13 months).

The above discussion is general, and it applies to both male and female Porcelaines. However, male dogs usually grow at a different rate compared to female dogs

A male Porcelaine will grow very fast in its first 44 weeks. At 44 weeks, a male Porcelaine will have reached 95 percent of its adult weight at 44 weeks. A male Porcelaine will then slowly stop adding more weight. At around 57 weeks (~13 months), a male Porcelaine should have reached its maximum weight. Male Porcelaines stop growing at 57 weeks (~13 months).

Similarly, a female Porcelaine will grow very fast in its first 44 weeks. At 44 weeks, a female Porcelaine will have reached 95 percent of its adult weight at 44 weeks. A female Porcelaine will then slowly stop adding more weight. At around 57 weeks (~13 months), a female Porcelaine should have reached its maximum weight. Female Porcelaines stop growing at 57 weeks (~13 months).

See the growth graph of a Porcelaine below.

As you can see in the Porcelaine growth curve below, the Porcelaine grows really fast in its early weeks, and then its growth levels off till it reaches 100 percent of the adult weight.

Porcelaine Growth Calculator

Use the calculator below to estimate how big your Porcelaine will get based on its current weight.

This Porcelaine growth calculator is based on the typical weight curve of a Porcelaine shown above. The calculator assumes that your Porcelaine is growing normally, and not on its way to become overweight or underweight.

How Much Should a Porcelaine Weigh?

Weight of the Porcelaine. Weight in the dark green region is typical, though weight in the light green region is also possible

Adult Porcelaines typically weigh between 55 to 56 pounds.

Above is a graph that shows how much a Porcelaine should weigh at different ages. Check where the weight of your Porcelaine falls in the graph for its age.

It is totally fine if the weight of your Porcelaine falls in either the dark green or light green region of the graph. However, weight in the dark green region is more typical for Porcelaines.

If the weight of your Porcelaine falls outside both the dark and light green region for its age, then you should consult a vet.

Also, you can use the Porcelaine weight calculator below to find the typical weight and the normal weight range of Porcelaines, male or female, of any age between 12 weeks and 100 weeks.

If you want to see how the weight of your Porcelaine compares to that of other Porcelaine`s of its age, enter the weight of your Porcelaine in the calculator, and the calculator will show you where your Porcelaine stands on the weight chart.

The calculator will also tell you if your Porcelaine is within the normal weight range for the Porcelaine.

This Porcelaine weight calculator uses information from belpatt.fr and data from a research study on dog weight carried out by researchers at the University of Liverpool.

Please, talk to your vet before taking any decision on your pet`s weight and health.

What is the Height of the Porcelaine?

The adult Porcelaine is 21 to 23 inches. This is the average adult height of the Porcelaine.

Is Your Porcelaine Growing Normally? This is How to Tell

Puppy growth predictors, growth charts, and growth calculators like the ones above are approximate methods for predicting growth in dogs. However, these tools have limited capabilities. This is because each dog is unique and a dog`s growth may be different from that of the overall dog population.

A more accurate and scientific way to predict a dog`s growth is to measure the dog`s weight every week and record the weight. Doing this with your Porcelaine will give you a clearer picture of how your Porcelaine is growing.

You can use our free tool to track your Porcelaine`s growth and weight over time. Our tool will also let you know if your Porcelaine is growing normally.

Tracking your Porcelaine`s weight will let you see the unique growth trajectory of your Porcelaine. You can use this growth trajectory to accurately predict how big your Porcelaine will get. The growth trajectory will also let you know very early if your Porcelaine will become overweight or underweight.

Monitoring your dog`s weight is important because pet obesity is one of the leading causes of premature death in dogs. And these days, pets gain weight very easily because their owners spoil them with lots of treats and food. Catching early abnormal weight in your dog and correcting it (through diet changes, exercise) can significantly extend your dog`s life.

Below is what a normal growth pattern and what abnormal growth patterns look like in Porcelaines. You can compare your Porcelaine growth trajectory against these references to see if your Porcelaine is growing normally or you can use our automatic tool.

How to Measure the Weight of your Porcelaine

There are two methods you can use to measure your Porcelaine`s weight.

The first method, which is the better and more accurate method to weigh your Porcelaine, is to use a dog weighing scale.

Using a dog scale is important if you would like to monitor your Porcelaine`s growth regularly to catch any abnormal growth early.

Having a scale for weighing your Porcelaine will make it easy for you to weigh your Porcelaine regularly without any trouble.

The scale that we recommend for weighing the Porcelaine is this high durability and affordable W.C Redmon Precision Digital Pet Scale. Click here to check out this scale on Amazon.

Pet Scale for Accurately Weighing Your Porcelaine

The second method is to use a bathroom scale to weigh yourself while holding your Porcelaine. Then use the same scale to weigh yourself without your Porcelaine. Then calculate your weight when holding your dog minus your weight when not holding your Porcelaine. This method is illustrated in the picture below.

However, note that this method of holding your dog on a scale is not very accurate, and it may be difficult for you to use this method to weigh your Porcelaine if your Porcelaine is very heavy or if your Porcelaine is the type that would not stay still while being held.

How Fast Do Porcelaines Grow? Porcelaine Growth Rate

Starting from 3 months of age, Porcelaines grow at a rate of 2.00 pounds per week (0.91 Kilograms per week) on average. Starting at 4 months, your Porcelaine will gain 1.65 pounds (0.75 Kilograms) every week on average.

At 5 months of age, your Porcelaine will grow at a rate of 1.34 pounds per week (0.61 Kilograms per week) on average. Then at 6 months, your Porcelaine will gain 1.08 pounds (0.49 Kilograms) every week on average.

See the growth rate chart of the Porcelaine below

Age (Months) Growth per week (Pounds) Growth per week (Kg)
3 Months 2.00 0.91
4 Months 1.65 0.75

Porcelaine Growth Stages

Your Porcelaine will go through a number of developmental stages on its journey to adulthood. Your Porcelaine`s growth pattern can be categorized into 6 distinct stages: Neonatal, Transitional, Socialization Period, Juvenile Period, Adolescent Period, and Maturity.

You can know the developmental stage of your Porcelaine based on how old your Porcelaine is.

1. Porcelaine Neonatal Period

Porcelaine Neonatal Period is from Birth to 2 weeks. During this stage, the Porcelaine puppy will be totally dependent on its mother. The Porcelaine puppy`s eyes will still be unopened with no sense of vision. The Porcelaine puppy will only have the senses of taste and touch

2. Porcelaine Transitional Period

Porcelaine Transitional Period is from 2 weeks to 3 weeks. During this stage, the Porcelaine puppy will continue to develop a better sense of hearing and taste. The puppy`s teeth will start coming through and its eyes will begin to open.

During this stage, the Porcelaine puppy begins to crawl forward and backward, begins to stand, begins to wag its tail. This is also the age where your puppy’s personality begins to develop.

3. Porcelaine Socialization Period

Porcelaine Socialization Period is from 3 weeks to 14 weeks. During this stage, the Porcelaine puppy will be able to fully use all of its senses (vision, smell, touch, hearing, taste), and the puppy will learn to survive without its mother.

Also during this stage, the Porcelaine puppy learns how to act like a dog (biting, chasing, barking, etc). The rapid learning and socialization of the puppy occur at this stage, and what the Porcelaine puppy learns in this stage will have a long-term effect on the puppy`s behavior as an adult.

4. Porcelaine Juvenile Period

Porcelaine Juvenile Period is from 3-4 Months to 5-14 months. During this stage, the Porcelaine puppies will attempt to clarify and resolve their boundaries. Their baby teeth start getting replaced by adult teeth.

5. Porcelaine Adolescent Period

Porcelaine Adolescent Period is from 5-14 Months to 2-3 Years. Porcelaines go through social and sexual maturity during this stage.

6. Porcelaine Maturity Period

Porcelaine Maturity Period is from 1 year to 4 years. At this age, your Porcelaine will transition to full adulthood.

How to Tell If Your Porcelaine is Overweight

As mentioned earlier in this article, a very accurate way to know if your Porcelaine puppy is on its way to becoming overweight is by weighing your dog every week and recording its weight. This will show you the growth trajectory of your Porcelaine puppy. And a close look at your puppy`s growth trajectory will tell you if your Porcelaine puppy will be overweight or underweight. This method is relatively easy to use.

You can use our free online tool to track your Porcelaine puppy`s growth curve.

However, if you do not have a record of the weekly weights of your Porcelaine, and you want to tell if your dog is overweight, underweight, or of normal weight, then you can use a chart called the body condition chart shown below. This method requires some expertise to use, and it is further discussed below.

Overweight, Underweight and Ideal Weight Body Condition Chart for Dogs

To tell your dog`s body condition, first, look at your dog closely and observe which of its bones and structures are sticking out or not sticking out from under its skin. Next, use your hands to feel for fat and bones over your dog. To know which bones to look and feel for, check out the body condition tool guide from the World Small Animal Veterinary Association and this guide. This exercise will tell you the body condition score for your dog.

Body condition scores are from a scale of 1 to 9. A score of 1, 2 or 3 means that a dog is too skinny. A score of 4 or 5 means that a dog is of ideal weight, and a score above 5 means that a dog is overweight.

Talk to your vet if your Porcelaine appears to be overweight. The vet might recommend reducing how much food to feed your Porcelaine.

Conclusion on Porcelaine Weight and Growth

In this article, we have provided you with the information, growth charts and growth calculators to help you tell how big your Porcelaine will get. These tools will also help tell if your Porcelaine is growing normally.

However, the best way to monitor and predict the growth of your Porcelaine is to measure and record your puppy Porcelaine`s weight every week.

Use our free Porcelaine weight tracker and calculator tool available here to track and predict your Porcelaine`s weight.

It is important that every Porcelaine owner monitors the growth of their Porcelaine for normal growth by checking the weight of their Porcelaine regularly. Regular weight monitoring will let you detect any abnormal growth very early before it is too late. We discussed how you can tell if your Porcelaine is growing normally from your Porcelaine`s weight history earlier in this article.

Abnormal growth in Porcelaine can be because of underlying disease (such are heart, hormonal, or bone problems) or because of overfeeding or underfeeding. All of the aforementioned reduce the Porcelaine lifespan and quality of life.

Don`t wait. Start tracking your Porcelaine`s weight today!
