How big do Basset Hounds get? The tool below projects your own puppy’s adult weight from its current age and weight, plotted against the typical Basset Hound growth curve.
Estimates combine your puppy’s current trajectory with typical growth curves for this breed and size class. Individual dogs vary — nutrition, genetics and neuter timing all matter. For health concerns, ask your vet.
The Basset Hound is a medium-sized breed. Adult males typically weigh 50–65 lb (22.7–29.5 kg) and females 45–60 lb (20.4–27.2 kg). Most Basset Hounds reach about half their adult weight around 4.3 months, hit 90% by roughly 9.1 months, and are fully grown near 13 months. A useful rule of thumb for medium breeds: they roughly double their four-month weight.
When do Basset Hounds stop growing?
Most Basset Hounds reach their full adult height and weight by about 13 months. Growth is fastest before 4.3 months, then slows steadily — by 9.1 months your puppy will be about 90% of its final size.
How much should a Basset Hound puppy weigh at 4 months?
