Max is a over a year old now and he weighs about 15 lbs. He has longer legs than molly and is much thinner. They both have papers and I saw both parents on both Max and Molly. Is Max a throw back?

It's really hard to say. A small male full grown(15 mo. or so) should be about 25#. Were the parents small? Some of my corgis are thinner than others, is Molly the correct weight? My Livvy was 21# at her last vet visit and she was about 15 months so I figure she will be 23-25# which is for her the correct size but she's a female. How much longer are his legs? The correct size when full grown should be height 10-12 " .
max has legs are about 4". Mollys are shorter. she weighs 23 lbs. maxs parents looked alot like molly I mean corgi wise.
Sorry I didn't clarify what I meant It would be from the shoulder, I just measured on of mine and her leg was 6", I will check some others later.. Was Max a runt?
I'll check later too Jane.
Keep in mid that some Corgis mature at a slower rate. Brodie waited until almost two for his chest to fill out and he seems to still be growing. He was very lanky yet Fergie had a mature figure before she was one. 15 lbs at a year is tiny especially for a boy, but he will likely fill out more. How much older than a year is Max?
he was born aug 19 last year so almost 15 months. Molly won't be a year until the 1st of the year
Kristen is right about some being slower than others although I do think he will be on the small side yes, he should fill out more.
measured both M&M They are both 12 " but max isn't as broad as molly
There's some variation in my corgis too! Just like people I guess!
Might have to do w/ the age he was neutered... unless he isn't...
That's what I was thinking, too. I've heard that neutering a male before sexual maturity can actually impact their size. Don't know if that's true...
It really doesn't matter. He stays good or bad. Thanks everyone. I'll let you know if things change.
