sandymere 8,261 Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 (edited) Sound pair of animals. here are no hard and fast rules as to weight as a lot will depend on breeding and type of work/exercise, ie a hundred metre sprinter is very different from a 10'000 metre runner. The main thing is to monitor for sudden weight loss or drop in stamina rather than baseline weight. Edited April 4, 2009 by sandymere Quote Link to post Share on other sites
