Dillon is 17 months old and he ranges from 27 to 28 lbs on average. I can feel his ribs but not see them , he is quite fit. he comes from large stock so i wouldnt be surprised if he were to end up around 30 lbs - his father, grandfather and greatgrandfather were all 30 lbs or more. His mother and grandmother are both around 26lbs.

Cody is 11 months old and currently weighs 26 1/2 pounds, but I too think that he will be between the 28 to 30 pound range once he is an adult

Chip is 9 months old and weighed 23 lbs at the last vet visit (before surgery) He is on the smaller side though and I hope he doesn't put on much more if any.

Don't panic yet Miss Gambler's Mommy - Rupe is a delightful 39.3 pounds of love. He's down 4 pounds from the summer. He's a big Corgi in stature though (I know that sounds like an excuse), but the vet is fine with his weight, although she said getting down to 36-37 pounds would be fine.

My big bear Koda is 6 months old and weighed in at 24 lbs last week at the vet, so I would guess he would be around 30lbs when he is full grown if not more. I started a thread about this a while ago and found out that Koda is pretty big for his age. He is 3 months younger than Chip but is about the same weight, and is 5 months younger than Cody and is only a couple of pounds lighter and she thinks Cody will be around 30 lbs so if he keeps growing at this rate he should be over 30 lbs.

A couple in my Neighborhood have a pure bred pembroke corgi who is almost 50 lbs but according to the vet is only about 5lbs overweight but he is just such a naturally big dog.

Milo is 9 months old at 26-27 lbs. I can still feel his ribs. I can tell his has some muscles and most of his weight is on his lower body especially his butt and thighs!

I'm cracking up!

Tucker (20 months/Pem) is 23 on the nose as of Tuesday, my Vet wants him under 23. Lulu weighed in at 15.2 lbs and she is almost 6 months old (Cardi).

Tucker is small for a Pem and I suspect Lulu will be small for a Cardi )her litter was premature and she was smaller than some of her sibs).

If you can keep your normal size male adult Pem Corgis to 30 lbs or under, you're doing famously well. The girls should be smaller and therefore lighter.

I don't believe a Corgi is at a good weight at 50 pounds or even at 45 pounds as that vet suggested - I would love to see a picture of that, I think your neighbors need to cut down on the treats.

Emma is 7 and weighs 27 lbs but the Vet wants her at 25. Chloe Belle at 10 months is 22 lbs. I measured both of them from the middle of their spine, over the shoulder bla
