Depends on the size of the pup but on average about 5ish pounds for females.
Two months…so around 8 weeks…Brasky was 19 pounds. And it’s a male. He’s a year old now.

Miss cutie…that is a big girl! I’ll be she was adorable!
When I got Keyser at 8 weeks, he was 13 pounds. He is about 85 pounds now at 2 years old..give or take a couple pounds.
mine was a female and weighed about 19 pounds:] she was a very big dog.
No idea. Weight on the scales is of no importance except when calculating the dose of poison (for such as worming) or anaesthetic.
What counts is their physical condition and their energy.
I weigh each pup daily for the first week, then every 2nd or 3rd day until 3 weeks.
But someone went to the trouble of weighing monthly for a whole year: http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/The_GSD_Source/links/Size___Weight_001198649681/ will give you the AVERAGE weight at each age, and the range-limits for adults. Just remember that averages are not REQUIRED weights – actual weight depends on how fast the pup is growing: how tall it is, how long it is, how deep its chest is, how dense its bones are, plus whether it is being overfed.
Slow growth to medium height with wiry muscles is much preferable to fast growth to over-size, despite the desire of newbies (especially Yanks!) to have the biggest mutt ever seen.
You should Add that group’s Home page address to your browser’s Bookmarks or Favorites – it is full of information about such as feeding, vaccination, neutering, disorders.
To ask your other questions about GSDs you should be in some of the 300+ YahooGroups dedicated to various aspects of living with GSDs. Each group’s Home page tells you which aspects they like to discuss, and how active they are.
[Fufufu]: Please don’t irresponsibly pretend to “answer” any more questions about GSDs – you obviously know NOTHING about the breed.
