The Shiba Inu is a small breed. Adult males typically weigh 20–24 lb (9.1–10.9 kg) and females 15–20 lb (6.8–9.1 kg). Most Shiba Inus reach about half their adult weight around 3.8 months, hit 90% by roughly 7.9 months, and are fully grown near 11 months. Small breeds do the bulk of their growing in the first six months, then fill out slowly.
When do Shiba Inus stop growing?
Most Shiba Inus reach their full adult height and weight by about 11 months. Growth is fastest before 3.8 months, then slows steadily — by 7.9 months your puppy will be about 90% of its final size.
