Is my dog underweight?

[Lindse cira]

Hi guys! Just wondering about the weight of my baby girl dolce. Shes going to be 9 months old ob march 4th. I just had her weighed today and shes only 78 pounds. She has a small waist but is solid as a rock and has great muscles. She eats blue buffalo large breed puppy formula mixed with blue buffalo wet food as well. About 4.5- 5 cups a day. Shes the blue beauty thanks guys!

She is beautiful, and the pup if i hadnt ggot 3 already it would make me want another, she looks healthy dont go on the weight look at body condition, better to be lean as they are growing to help there joints especially as they grow so fast

Thank you! I love my girls more than anything, i just want them to be the best they can be! Her parents were 120 and 140, she seems to be in a slump? She's lean and muscular, but dogs at 9 months usually weigh more than her.

I agree, don't worry about the number on the scale as long as she is healthy and her body condition is good. Having big parents doesn't mean all puppies will grow to the same size, you could have a throw back to a grand parent that was smaller or her genetic code is just built on the smaller side. The same thing can happen when breeding smaller/correct size corso with a large or huge one coming out from a litter.

She looks great, I agree with Mary.
