Sloughi puppy growth: milestones and weight estimates
How fast a Sloughi puppy grows, illustrative weight estimates and the limits of predicting adult size.
Sloughi puppies grow tall and gangly, reaching most of their height by about 12 months but taking until 18 months to 2 years to fill out. Adolescents often look like nothing but legs, which is normal. Many go through a cautious or shy phase in these months, so keep socialization gentle and steady.
Growing sighthounds are prone to injuries from over-enthusiastic running and collisions. Allow free play in safe spaces, but avoid long forced runs and jumps from heights. Lameness, swelling or reluctance to move should always be checked by a vet.
