Slow Down Meerah

There is a lot to say about Beti, but I'll leave it till tomorrow, if the forecast is correct then I'll be in all day! LOL 
Meerah was confident and happy in the waiting room at the vets, just a couple of apprehensive woofs at another dog, but she soon settled. She weighs 16kg and is now unfortunately 48cms at 3.5 months. Her mum was 46.5 at 4 Months, and Beti grew 2cms from 3.5 months to make 48.5cms at 4 months. So yeah she is currently about the size of a male at this age! Shit! Meerah has grown 5cms so far this month, I pray she slows down now, Steve has already said that if she gets too big I really should consider letting her go ... of course that's not who I am, and I've waited a long time for a sable female .. and of course she's Kaiah's granddaughter! 
I'm not bothered about her ear that will get there, but size does really matter for showing, and I really had hoped/do hope to have the whole package. No one expects perfection, well if you do you have a shock coming your way, you just hope to be good enough to be in the running. 
I will say the same thing as I have before, I know they all grow differently, but I pray she's not over 50cms in 2 weeks time!!!
