: You can't really define size by weight. As
: an example Jetsetter weighed around the 45

: 52 lbs. The average Joe would have never put
: that kind of muscle on a dog. I have seen
: really fine boned, thin chested dogs that

: thick, stocky, short legged dogs. IMO a dogs
: proportional confirmation is more important
: than size. Although I do want them big
: enough to see.
