Question
I have a 7 month old female boxer and i have a feeling that shes kinda small ive seen her mom and her brothers and sisters. Some of them are bigger than she is. She weighs 50 pounds and measures 23 at the withers to the floor. I wanted to know if she has the right height and weight.

Answer
There is no 'correct' height or weight for a growing puppy.  They all grow at different rates.  Boxers spend the first 12 months growing up and the next 12 putting on muscle.  You want her to be in proportion...not too heavy or light for her bone structure.  That's the most important thing.  If your vet feels that she is healthy and of the correct size for HER, she's fine.
