🐶 Note: Individual growth may vary depending on genetics, diet, exercise, and gender.


🍼 Early Months: 0–3 Months

During the first few months:

  • Puppies are rapidly growing and developing coordination.
  • Socialization is critical—introduce your pup to different people, sounds, and experiences.
  • Vaccinations and deworming should begin.
  • Start crate and potty training.

🍖 Middle Stage: 4–6 Months

  • Teething peaks, so provide durable chew toys.
  • Training becomes more consistent—this is a great time to teach commands like “sit,” “stay,” and “come.”
  • Your puppy will begin to develop early signs of adult muscle tone.
  • Keep an eye on diet—avoid overfeeding to prevent joint issues.

🏋️ Teen Phase: 6–12 Months

  • Your Pitbull will have bursts of energy and may test boundaries (similar to human teens).
  • Continue leash training and reinforce positive behaviors.
  • Neutering/spaying is often discussed at this stage (consult your vet).
  • Expect lots of physical growth and some weight fluctuation.

💪 Full Maturity: 12–18+ Months

  • Most Pitbulls reach their adult height by 12 months but continue gaining muscle until 18–24 months.
  • Continue a high-protein diet and regular exercise.
  • Behavioral maturity sets in—less puppy chewing and more obedience.

🩺 Health Tips for Each Growth Stage

  • 🐾 Monthly weight checks help prevent overfeeding.
  • 🐾 Keep up with your vaccination schedule.
  • 🐾 Provide age-appropriate food—start with puppy formula and transition to adult around 12 months.
  • 🐾 Use joint supplements if your vet recommends them.
