Rottweiler/Labrador mixes (which are also known as Labrotties) can become quite big dogs.
We're talking around 80-90 lbs, or around 35-40 kg - which is why it's important to make sure you're taking good care of your Labrottie!
How big do Rottweiler/Labrador mixes grow?
There's no definitive figure really - Rottweilers have been known to push 110 lbs, whilst Labradors are slightly smaller (around 60-70 lbs).
Based on this, you can expect your dog to reach at least 80-90 lbs.
The main mistake that Labrottie owners make is to exercise their dog too much from a young age, thinking it needs to burn off energy so that it doesn't become hyper.
Whilst exercise is certainly a good thing, getting your dog used to a thorough work out when it's still small will have implications as it grows.
If you don't want your Rottweiler/Lab pup growing up to be a hyper handful, I'd recommend pacing yourself when you're out with him/her, certainly for the first few months.
