YAY!!!! She's in the "safe" zone!

Today was Kitas check up appointment along with Karmas last set of needles... (damn classes requiring these things)
Anyways, Kita got a clean bill of health! YAY! She healed good, but we still have to be careful with her.
Im so relieved that she doesnt need surgery, and that she can go on living again.
What a fright, but im so happy things are "fine" now.

Karma on the other hand is growing like a "bad weed"
Shes up to 15 kgs now... ( I forget the lbs conversion for that) but she checked out fine too, she has 4 adult teeth now, in the front and they look so out of place compared to the puppy teeth.

Thats all for now, I have to head out to the store... maybe be back later to blog more in depth of my realization of getting on a plane for the first time to go to Vegas, I had a bit of an episode last night. lol

1 kg = 2.2 lbs... so Karma is now 33 lbs. how old is she? seems kinda small for a newfie.. but then again they grow in spurts so i'm sure she'll be a ginormous ol'good pretty soon!

yay for kita-girl! :-)

TD, just cause I like ya, im gonna let this one slide.
but, shes a Tibetan Mastiff, not a Newf (tisk tisk)
Heres a sample growth chart for a TM, http://www.tibetanmastiffinfo.com/files/TM_Growth_Chart.pdf
Being a female, shes doing well for her age!

Oh! I thought she was a newf - durr! See that is proof we need more photos of the cutie, he he!

Just read the article, super interesting. And I concurr, some lines just mature very slowly - Dakotah just crossed the 4-yr mark and still has about a year to fill out, even though hims a big boy now.

The little beast weighed 30 lbs at 10 weeks old, which is why I sounded a bit concerned for Karma.

What is her projected adult height and weight, do you know?

Zedder said...

Due to her lineage, we are anticipating approx 115lbs and a good 25 inches, so atleast she will reach requirements in height for standard. Could take a few years for weight though.
Such a strange breed when it comes to eating. Its no play on words when you read "TM's were put here to drive us crazy with their eating problems" She is such a nibbler and if it isnt raw... shes not eating it (smart gurl)
