- There is no certain way to say. I've NEVER seen two be the same. How much does it weigh? How much does it eat compared to it's body weight? If the dog does not seem thin(seeing ribs), it's probably in the right proportions. Mine is almost 2 and only weighs 65 and he's got a sleek look...which I prefer and he meets standards. You can't say how much it SHOULD be with certainty. EDIT: Don't exercise them too much...Their joints and things haven't fused completely and a lot of exercise can do more harm than good. They may seem small, but they seem to be doing well from the looks of it. Boxers typically "fill out" more in 2-3 yr of age. They may seems smaller now, but the first 12 mo. their gaining height and weight and such. The next 12, they'll be gaining muscle and bulking up more. They may even gain 10-15 more pounds. They sounds healthy to me though!
- It really is up to each dog. As long as they seem to have good weight, are healthy, active, and have firm stool, you are probably okay :)
