When do they stop growing?

[mummysnoo]

At what age does a boy Mini Schnauzer stop growing, Alfie is 5 months old and he is nearly as tall as his Grandad Oscar who is 7 years old. Was just curious.

Freddy stopped growing at about a year old - he'd reached his full height at six months but spent the next six months filling out.

Monty is nearly 10 months old and I hope he has stopped growing or else he is going to be the tallest mini I have ever seen hehe

I can't see Mookie as any different to what she was at 6/7 months (she's 9 now). I think it might depend on male/female differences too. She has certainly looked a lot more 'study' on her feet in the last couple of months.

generally the miniature schnauzer is fully grown by about 9 months.

Cara had done most growing by 6 months - she added maybe another half inch in height after and 'filled out' between 6 and 9 months (mind you 'filling out' is hardly apropriate, she is quite a slim mini) I reckon Mo has half an inch of height MAX and may fill out a little more although she is already stockier than Cara. Mo is 7 months.

Dannie is right - 9months they are fully grown physically. Can take up to 2 years I'd say for them to reach 'adult' temperatment (adult used in the loosest possible sense of course)

I have been wondering this too. Jetson is 6 months old and about 14 inches last time I measured him and around 15 pounds. I am thinking he will be a pretty big mini.

Daisy is nearly 7 month now.

13" tall
6.1 kg

I'm hoping she just fills out from now on.

Bella is 5 months this weekend, not sure how tall exactly but is 5.5kg at the mo. She is def getting heavier to hold!!

i have renamed freya "Freya Pan" after peter pan as i don't think she will ever grow up!

[Caramomo]

Since Cara had the puppies and has then become 'pack leader' she has really settled town and turned into a right grumpy old woman!! Mo shows no signs of maturing - its quite funny to watch this almost fully grown dog playing up like a true puppy.

yes ruby is exactly as you describe cara-i call her grandma roo and freya and mo seem one of a kind too!
