Greyhound Growth Chart
The Greyhound is the fastest dog on earth — a sleek, ancient sighthound that has been racing and coursing for thousands of years. Off the track, Greyhounds are famously calm, gentle couch potatoes. Adult males typically weigh 65-70 lb and females 60-65 lb, with most fully grown between 14 and 18 months.

Greyhound weight by age
Typical male and female puppy weight ranges by age, available in lb and kg. Individual puppies may vary.
Most Greyhound puppies approach adult weight around 18 months, although individuals may finish earlier or later.
These estimated ranges combine the breed's adult weights with a size-based growth curve. They are not measured breed-specific percentiles or health targets. Month labels are rounded approximations; use the week values for each row. How these weight ranges are calculated
Greyhound Growth Stages
Understanding the typical growth stages helps you know what to expect as your Greyhound puppy grows.
Neonatal
0–2 weeksPuppies are born with eyes and ears closed, relying entirely on their mother. Rapid weight gain occurs during this period.
Socialization
3–12 weeksEyes and ears open. Puppies begin to explore, play, and learn social behaviors. This is a critical period for development.
Juvenile
3–8 monthsRapid growth continues. Puppies become more independent, start teething, and develop coordination.
Adolescent
8–14 monthsGrowth rate begins to slow. Puppies reach sexual maturity and may test boundaries. Muscle mass develops.
Young Adult
14–18 monthsGrowth is nearly complete. Your puppy is filling out and approaching adult proportions.
Adult
18+ monthsYour puppy has reached their full adult size. Weight should remain relatively stable with proper nutrition.
Greyhound FAQ
How much will my Greyhound puppy weigh as an adult?
Adult males typically weigh 65-70 lb and females typically 60-65 lb. Because the sexes have their own ranges, use the male and female columns in the weight-by-age table above rather than a single blended target.
At what age is a Greyhound fully grown?
Most reach adult weight between 14 and 18 months. Sighthounds mature into their elegant frames gradually; a tall, slim yearling that still looks unfinished is usually right on track.
How accurate is a Greyhound puppy weight chart?
It is a reliable reference, but this breed's build is extreme — a healthy Greyhound shows ribs and hip bones that would look alarming on other breeds. Do not mistake sighthound leanness for underweight; trust the scale and the trend over weeks.
How much should a Greyhound puppy weigh at 12 weeks?
Check the 12-week row in the weight-by-age table above for the estimated male and female ranges. If your puppy falls well outside that band, re-check the scale, the lb/kg setting, and the age entry first — a single off reading is more common than a truly unusual puppy.
Do male and female Greyhounds grow differently?
Yes, clearly. Males are usually larger, typically 65-70 lb versus 60-65 lb for females. Use the sex-specific columns in the table above, since a single blended range would be misleading.
