Just curious as to how much bigger can a male GSD dog get from the age of 12 months to 3 years ? How many pounds .. Thanks

Look to the parents and see what they are male to male female to female usually they are pretty close to the same.

Do you have a worry or are you just curious

What does your dog weight now type of bone makes weight not bigger that to plays into it.

Say another 1.5 inches and 20-30 pounds depending on how filled out he is now, a slow grower or was he fast

They do the most growing in the first 6 months. So, after 1 year you will see growth, but it won't be as noticeable or substantial. They'll put on some weight, but my dogs are very trim and fit and keep a nice tight waist, which is advised. After 3, they'll fill out more, again, don't expect huge dogs, it's not what their breed dictates. Freakishly large GSDs are not what this breed states and only opens up to a host of health issues. My male really took on his 'manly look' around 5. He looked like he weighed 100+ pounds, but sat at 88ish.

 

I wish I could attach a pic.

No concerns just Curious , he just turned a year and weighs 86 pounds and is about 26 inches , was hoping he won't be getting any bigger

Since he looks to be a fast grower then maybe a half inch more and depending on condition not more than 15- 20 pounds

I had a girl who at 6 months could pass for full grown and she stayed close to that

Yes he matured rather quickly.. Now does the skull of a dog also grow ? Will the bones get also thicker Iam assuming ?
