Is your dog small, or does simply meet the breed standard? Boxers that are bred to the standard are usually smaller than what people think they should be. They are not that large of a dog and are not supposed to reach 80+ lbs like most people believe. Take a measurement from the floor to the top of his shoulder and compare that to the breed standard. He should be about done growing in height, but will continue to fill out until he is around 3.

Boxers will reach their full weight around 12-18 months of age. And after about 12 months the dog shouldn't grow dramatically, maybe just slightly.

Is your canines small, or does purely meet the breed suitable-basic? Boxers that are bred to the suitable-basic are many cases smaller than what human beings think of of they'd want to be. they are not that super of a canines and are not meant to attain 80+ lbs like optimum human beings have self concept. Take a length from the floor to the coolest of his shoulder and evaluate that to the breed suitable-basic. He would want to be approximately performed becoming to be in ideal, yet will proceed to fill out till ultimately he's around 3.

Dog's don't completely develop until they are at least 2 years old.

It can depend on the bloodline (family). I have some basset hounds that didn't fully mature until they were 5 years old.

Probably has stopped growing. I know they seem smaller if you personally have one.
