Dixie has grown up, she is now 13.5 month old and I tried
to see the difference in size by using the coat I made for her
in December last year.
Dixie 4.5 month (December 2017)
Dixie 8 month (April 2018)
Dixie 13.5 month (September 2018)
Surprisingly it still fits somewhat. The belt is in its last hole and the collar is barely holding but I can use the same pattern again to make a new rain coat. The final one.
We think she has now reached her final size. 62 cm (24 ") at the shoulder and we guess her weight is about 31 kg (70 lbs).
She is also very good at picking cans off the road. We go and pick bottles and cans regularly.
There are so many people giving a good day in pollution.
We care.
Not the best photo, my old Samsung has an awful camera.
It just shows Dixie compared in size to her Golden Retriever friend Beau.
She is about 10 cm (3.9 ") taller.
