35 pounds!

When I got Sam he was a precious 20lbs, but upon today`s vet visit to pick up his heart worm meds I asked the tech working if she could weigh him because I`d suspected he`d gotten bigger. I was thinking 27-30lbs tops, because when I adopted him both the vet and the foster parents thought he wouldn`t get much bigger. But now he`s a whopping 34.6 pounds! And he`s not even fat, he`s all muscle, loose skin, and hair! He didn`t seem that big before, but now looking back at pictures I can see how much he`s grown. Does anyone else have a chunker on their hands? How big is your low-rider?

The first picture is Sam a couple of days after I got him, and the second is Sam with his new lovey(which has already been killed) two days ago.

I agree with Beth....maybe a little something else mixed in there. He sure is a cutie!

When the rescue got LeeLoo, she was 41 pounds! She is a bigger corgi and we now have her down to 32.8 pounds. She is very chesty and has skin hanging where she used to have fat. We lived in an apartment when we first got her and the three flights of stairs helped with the weight loss. I've seen much much smaller corgis and much larger corgis than loo. She's healthy and happy and the vet is happy with this weight.
