A petite built female at five months, then 15 pounds would be about right. You can always do a rib check and puppies should be a little plumper than you would want for an adult.

She is getting a little bit thinner that she was when she was younger, but there doesn't seem to be too much of a difference when I touch her ribs, just a little different. She is losing a lot of her baby teeth lately and I think it's a little harder for her to eat, she takes longer and doesn't eat quite as much.
