Forum Rules
1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect.
2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff.
3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned.
4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.

Polar should finish growing around 2yrs. he will slow down somewhat around 1 but will keep going till about 2 when he will start to fill out.

Ghost is ~21" and 42 lbs, and is only about a week younger than Polar. I think she's going to be a big girl...

On the one hand, you become a fierce defender of the ways in which your little one is perfectly ordinary — all the things he or she can do that are just like what everybody else does. And yet, you never lose sight of how absolutely extraordinary that very ordinariness is, how difficult, remarkable and rewarding that fight to be 'just like everybody else' has been."  -Gwen Cooper, "Homer's Odyssey"

They grow 95% in their first year. After a year they won't get much taller, just start filling out.

I think there's a thread about this somewhere, but I'll repeat:

We've gathered information from across boards and it seems that generally, huskies will grow fairly steadily until 7-10 months of age in height and weight. After that they plateau for a while before hitting another spurt around 15-18 months. They might grow a bit more in height at that time, but they will definitely begin to fill out from then until they are at least 2 years old. Some huskies even continue to grow until they are 3.

To give you an idea, at 7 months old, Koda was about 22" and 45lbs. He is not 23.5" and 60 lbs at 5 years old (yes, I missed another birthday. I'm an awful momma, lol).

No wonder I keep saying that Kody looks bigger all of a sudden! He's 16 months and out of nowhere has filled out some and is definitely taller than Mya! I measured him and he's 23.5 inches also and Mya is 22 inches. I need to get this boy weighed!
