Mitsu only weighed 11 pounds when I took her to the vet last week (5 months old). I took her for an eye issue (some discharge) but asked about her weight too, because I was concerned. My vet said she looks great - proportional and not too skinny. I even feed her just over the recommended amount of primal raw (by a small bit) AND I feed her sweet potatoes with nearly every meal. This is my first shiba so I'm not sure what the standard weight is for a 5-month-old, but going by a little of what I've read around and by Penny's weight, it seems like Mitsu may be on the smaller side.

Which I am perfectly fine with...as long as she gets to be too big to fit under the bed! She's getting closer and closer (she has to crawl now), but it still seems like a far away dream, haha. She likes to bring stuff there to chew...right in the middle where she can barely be reached.

katsu is about 14 or 15 lbs. i think tanuki is over 20 by now.

Koji is 6 months almost to the day and is 18 pounds...Wonder if he will be on small side...met two adults the other day and he was almost same size, but their heads were bigger and more filled out..

My shiba is an adult and he's 16 pounds....a little guy!

Bowdu is six years old and 32~33 pounds. I thought he looked his best when he was at 29~30 pounds, but he doesn't appear too "fat" at his current weight (unless he's sitting with his legs splayed out), he only eats about 9-10 ounces of food a day, and he gets plenty of walking -- about 1.5-2 hours a day.

[EDIT October 2011: After a year of strictly monitoring his diet, Bowdu's at 29 pounds now!]

how did you guys find such small pictures for your profile! even the smallest things I find are being cut off...sigh

woah it worked! lol FINALLY

Hunter is about 9 lbs and will be 4 months old this weekend. He's definitely on the small side, but looks proportional and healthy. We even feed him slightly over the recommended amount of Primal raw and mix it with carrots, apples, and starting sweet potatoes tomorrow.


Atlas - do you cook the sweet potatoes you feed Mitsu? We're not sure if we should cook them or not.

Mine are both a little over a year old one is 26 lbs and the other a whopping 37! The vet called him "solid" he gets a ton of exercise and isn't fat he is just big and well...solid. And @ atlas good luck with him being to big to get under the bed, Tidus (the 37 lb one) still loves to scoot under there, although it is a struggle he manages to do it still.

@Hunter - we give Mori cooked potatoes sometimes. We checked with our vet before giving them to him and our vet said to make sure they are cooked cos otherwise it can upset their stomachs or something to that effect. Not sure about sweet potatoes, but I'd think it's a similar situation. Carrots we give to him raw, chopped up fine and mixed in with his food.

Jake is 7months, 22.6 lbs

Yoshi is a year and 9 months and he weighs 25lbs and Emi is 4 months old and weighs 10.6 lbs

I think cooking the sweet potatoes is better them raw it's pretty hard.

I find Saya likes sweet potatoes cooked better she doesn't like the sweet potato chews that are dehydrated.

Tonka is 2 years old and 35 to 36 pounds

After reading all their weights I know even more that Talin is very small. She's 3 years old and 14 lbs. Patrick is 10 months and he weighs about 21 lbs.

Hime is 7.5 months and weighs 16.5lbs. I think if she consistently ate all her food she'd be bigger but she is extremely finicky.

Ichigo is 15 weeks yesterday and 10.5 lbs. We just saw his brother (currently still with our breeder) on Sunday and he is so much chunkier and fluffier than our Ichigo. Our breeder told us it was because he stays in his kennel outside and wrestles with his sister all day, building muscle and a thick coat to protect against the cold. Versus our Ichigo, who gets to lounge around the warm house and gets to wrestle with other puppies on Thursdays and Sundays... :P

Kita is a year and 3 months & weighs 10.68kg (quick sums... about 23.5lbs) She's a big, strong girl :-D

I thought they were only supposed to get to 25lbs!

Tuck is 9 months and 22 lbs. hope he grows bigger

Hoshi- little red guy, 13 yrs. old is 17 lbs. This is good, because when he came out of the shelter in March he was only 14.5 lbs. Originally bred by my brother.

Sukoshi (not the "little bit" her name would imply). Black and tan girl, 40 lbs. And yes, we are trying a diet to deal with the winter "tubbo Shiba". Sukoshi is taller and longer than most Shibas. As some of you may recall, I had a DNA done on her for just this reason. It came back Shiba and Chow, but I think that the Chow is way back there, somewhere in the line. She comes from puppymill sources.

My Shiba is so small! He's 2 years old...and weights only 16 lbs. He's a rescue, and he's only been with me for about three months now, so maybe after a few good months of origin he will put on some weight!

Zaius is 19" and 44lbs...Leeloo is a puppy at 4 month. Not sure of her height but she weighed in at 12.5 earlier this week at the vet.

Woo! Another Eagles fan!

Sparkle is 6 years and currently weights 16lbs, though right now we're trying to put some weight on her.

Kishi was 7.2lbs at her vet appointment. She was 12 weeks. Her 1yr old female shiba friend is 17lbs.

Toki is about 8 months now and 18 pounds. We were wondering about what age your Shibas reached their adult sizes? We're a little worried that Toki's going to stay small.
