  1. Yes, the knuckles should pretty much vanish -you may see a small, fairly regular bump there (as opposed to the more pronounced and slightly uneven bumps of the growth plate) - which would be the joint end of the bone itself. But often they disappear completely. Growth in sighthound type dogs often isn't completely finished until around the 18 month mark, and you can get spurts up to about a year old. Usually after that (but not always)the growth rate really slows and you'd but lucky to see much more than an inch in height gained, but the dog will 'fill out' as muscle growth takes over.

    Nice one, cheers. I thought mine was a bit on the small side, she's only 20tts, but it looks like she's still got a fair bit of growing to do then. :thumbs:

    How big is you pup now Rob?

  2. I've got a beddy x whippet/greyhound pup.. 6 1/2 months and 18 1/2 inches.. cracking looking dog but just a bit concerned as to how big he will get.. sire was 100% beady (rillington strain) 17 inches and bitch was 23 or 24 inches..

     

    anybody got any ideas on what they think he might make height wise?
