Well, Murphy turns 9 months in just a couple days and he now stands 29 3/8" at the shoulder and weighs 111 lbs.  Everyone seems to think he is gonna be a VERY large newf..We watch his eating very closely and he is on the lean side.  The bad part is he doesn't look big at all to us..LOL

LoganfromNewf:
He may get big but he will always be adorable.

Here's a couple pics of Murphy from a month ago.

Yep. Murphy is already taller than the average male Newf (28”), and he still has some growing to do. He’s same size as Clancy (who's 8 months). All my friends with mastiffs insist that Clancy is going to be huge. Me? I'm doubtful. I still think of him as bitty, and there's just no way he'll ever measure up to the OEMs in our gang (one of which is truly monstrously huge, in a good way).

Isn’t it funny how they don’t seem large until you see them next to other dogs? I used to think my friend’s 95lb boxer was a bruiser. Now he looks like a delicate flower next to my two, LOL!

Oh how cute! What a sweet little face. I know what you mean about the size thing. I don't think my girls are big till I see them around other dogs or trying to find an open spot in my bed to sleep!!  ;D
