I have a German Shorthair and she is about 5 months old. I am worried though that she is gaining weight too fast at this stage. On Aug 28, she weighed 30 pounds. On Sept 14, she weighs 36 pounds. On Sept. 20 (tonight), she weighed 42 pounds. I know this breed reaches 45-60 at maturity, but I'm worried that she might be growing too fast because a breed like this usually stops growing over a years time. Could some of it be because she feeds at different times throughout the day. My vet recommends once a day, but we had been spreading it out throughout the day, like two or three times. Could any of this be related to weight gain. If she is fed once a day, would that slow the growth.
