Pet Weight Ranges
-
Weight and pet weight ranges are only a starting point for further investigation. By combining your pet’s weight with its Body Condition Score (BCS), you can determine its approximate body composition and body fat percentage (adiposity). This is similar to using Body Mass Index (BMI) to generalize healthy weight ranges for humans.
Some pets may fall outside of the weight ranges listed here and still have a healthy body composition. Conversely, there are pets that fall within these breed weight ranges that may have unhealthy excess body fat or a high BCS.
Every pet should have its body condition assessed by a veterinarian or trained veterinary professional at least once a year.
It is also important to note that when searching for “breed weight averages,” some sources report the average of their entire dataset of pet weights, not a healthy or “ideal weight” of the breed.
-
We provide ideal weight ranges by breed that can be used as a starting point for further investigation about your dog or cat’s healthy weight and body condition.
“Ideal weight” is based on a combination of physical and biological factors to optimize health and longevity.
We use the term “target weight” to describe an intermediate weight and body condition goal during a Step Weight Loss program.
Your veterinary healthcare team will determine both “ideal weight” and “target weight” as determined by you pet’s condition and needs.
What factors influence a cat or dog’s weight?
Diet - How much and what you feed your pet is the most important factor affecting your pet’s weight.
Exercise - Lack of physical activity can lead to weight gain and obesity.
Genetics - Individual pets may have different metabolic rates, food drives, or physiological differences that place them more at risk for obesity. There are several identified genetic mutations associated with obesity and weight gain in humans and animals.
Spay/Neuter Status - Pets that are spayed or neutered may experience hormonal changes that affect metabolism, and many may become less active, altering their caloric needs and leading to obesity.
Age - Nutritional and dietary requirements change as pets age, along with nutrient digestion and catabolism, which can adversely affect weight.
Medical Conditions - Certain medical conditions (hypothyroidism, hyperadrenocorticism, acromegaly, etc.) can cause weight gain in pets.
Medications - Certain drugs, including corticosteroids and seizure medications, can cause a pet to gain weight.
