As a medium breed, a Portuguese Sheepdog reaches its adult weight earlier than a large dog — smaller breeds finish growing sooner (Hawthorne et al., 2004).
Weight varies within the Portuguese Sheepdog by sex, genetics and health, and mixed-breed dogs fall between their parents. This is a typical range, not a guarantee.
