To be honest, I was surprised when the vet told me his weight the other day (he just said 100 pounds so I don't know if it was a little more or less he didn't say exactly.) And actually I just started cutting down his food intake a little bit since I got him neutered and don't want him to gain any weight.
But he IS in great shape, we go on hikes and long runs together and he has a large yard to play in all day and he ALWAYS has energy!! (I think I've only tired him out once!) I can still feel his hips and ribs so I know he's not overweight. I have a lot of experience with dogs and I HATE when owners let their dogs get obese, it's one of my 'pet peeves.'
Here is a photo of him, I know you can't tell by a photo alone, but he is in great (though maybe not standard) shape. ;)

I know that feeling :lol: I did put my new female that I did pick up in Cz 1,5 week ago on the scales and she was 30,5kg :shock: And she is only 62cm :roll:

I did see that she was over weight, but I did think she was only about 27kg,
Now she is on her way down to 25kg at least... I think perfect shape for a 62cm female is 22,5-23,5kg But she is soon to be 7 so I think 25 might be a OK weight for her ??? But I’m all ears, please tell me if I’m wrong any one :|

Very best regards / Mikael

Gerda z Rofa: 61 cm, 27 kg in younger years, now as a great-grandmother 28 kg. http://www.wolfdog.org/drupal/de/gallery/pic/66987/
Amy Zlatá Palz: 64 cm, 30 kg
http://www.wolfdog.org/drupal/de/gallery/pic/66973/
Falin Zlatá Palz: 63,5 cm, 30 Kg
http://www.wolfdog.org/drupal/de/gallery/pic/70152/
Baschka Zlatá Palz: 65,5 cm, 33 kg
http://www.wolfdog.org/drupal/de/gallery/pic/17729/
Lorenz Farouk Arimminum: 70 cm, 40 kg
http://www.wolfdog.org/drupal/de/gallery/pic/66999/
Monty Crying Wolf: 68 cm, 33,2 kg (not fully grown)
http://www.wolfdog.org/deu/dbase/d12393.html
in all of them you can feel the rips without any pressuring but you only can see the contures of the last two rips, what is the optimal shape for me. Monty is a little bit thinner because he is still growing.
All of them are of the lighter type, except Baschka who is a little bit heavier build. 22 kg for a fully grown 62 cm female is too thin, except maybe for a dog in full marathon-type training that is very lightly build.

Thanks :)

Than I will try to get her down to 27kg as a start and see how she feels about it, but right now from above it looks like she ate a bucket :lol:

Best regards / Mikael

Hm. Bascha looks really good in this photo, so I wonder - Brukne (Walkiria) is 66cm, kind of a muscular type, but when she weights 30 kg she still seems a little bit... well, not so graceful :) What is it? Light bones or me, who see things in a wrong way (really possible)? :roll:
Ah, and here she is when wheitinh 30kg :http://www.wolfdog.org/drupal/en/gallery/pic/128908/ No ribs seen :D

michaelundinaeichhorn 07-09-2010 09:11

;-) Well, Baschka is not exactly the light bone type.

Hi, i don't think you are measuring the withers properly.
My Jasna weighs 24Kg and is 61cm to the withers
Oliver is around 40Kg and 72cm to the withers (more or less)
Believe me, it is normal, if you are unexperienced, not to be able to measure the withers properly. Even experts make wrong measurements by a few centimetres.

André 07-09-2010 16:01

By the way... is there a way to have a list of the highest CzW alive?

Silvester 07-09-2010 19:36

The most high standing (male) Csw i know from here on wolfdog.org is

Bonifác Testamonium diaboli with 75 (!) cm in bonitation code

and his half- brothers ( a little smaller )

Adónis Testamonium diaboli with 73,5 cm and

Afis Testamonium diaboli with 72 cm

Also the two sisters Artemis and Afaia are very high and long- legged for
bitches.

Artemis is looking almost like a greyhound in my eyes and she´s very untypical for a Csw. Adonis and Artemis have also very bad HD results.

Greetings , Silvester
