As a large breed, a Scottish Deerhound keeps growing for longer than a small dog — larger breeds reach their adult weight months later (Hawthorne et al., 2004). Expect steady growth well past the first year.

Weight varies within the Scottish Deerhound by sex, genetics and health, and mixed-breed dogs fall between their parents. This is a typical range, not a guarantee.
