QuestionQUESTION: What should be the average weight of an 8 week old male Boston pup?
ANSWER: Hi - I don't know if this will help, it's a puppy weight chart from a breeder.
http://tinascountrykennel.com/id11.html
There are 16 ounces in 1 pound ( USA)
If the puppy was 5 ounces at birth, according to the chart he would be Almost 2 pounds at 8 weeks of age.
You need the birth weight to figure this out.
Mostly, your 8 week old pup should be close to 29-32 ounces at 8 weeks of age.
BEST wishes!
Happy Holidays

QUESTION: What do you think for a male Boston at 6 weeks? Thanks
AnswerHi again, It depends on the parents. He can run from 1.75 pounds to 3.5 pounds at 6 weeks of age.
At 8 weeks he can be 2 pounds to 4.5 pounds.
The Vet will let you know if this pup is doing well and growing correctly.
If you are buying the pup from a breeder they should provide a current certificate of health.
The Certificate will show a recent vet exam and findings.
HOPE this helps
