Why can’t puppies stay little and cute longer? I picked Sienna out at 5 weeks; she couldn’t have weighed more than 10 pounds, probably less. She was fat and fluffy and had bright blue eyes. When I picked her up at 8 weeks, she had grown so much, but of course was still very adorable, she weighed in at 16 pounds. At 11 weeks she was getting so big that I wasn’t sure how much longer I could carry her and I found myself wishing that she could just stay little a little longer.
When she was about 2 months old my husband taught her to run and jump into his arms while he crouched down. At her 20 pound demure little frame this was adorable. Well now she is more than 40 pounds and even though he can still do it, it takes more effort and gets more difficult with each passing day. I try to pick her up everyday just to see if I can but I really don’t think it will be much longer before she is just too big. When she reaches her adult weight she will be around 80+ pounds. All muscle too! Of course no matter her size, she will always be the baby.
