Dog-to-Human Weight Comparison

What would your dog's weight look like on a person?

A few extra pounds on a dog is not the same as a few extra pounds on a person. Pick your dog's breed below to see what that weight would look like scaled to a human body, which makes it easier to see why even small gains matter.

Don't see your dog's breed? Choose the closest match by adult size and body type, or use Mixed-breed Dog.

No breeds match that search. Try a shorter spelling, or use Mixed-breed Dog and pick the closest adult size and body type.
