1. What is the Bernedoodle Weight Predictor?

The Bernedoodle weight predictor estimates the adult weight of a Bernedoodle puppy based on its current weight and age. This helps owners plan for their dog's future needs and ensure proper growth and development.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the formula:

Where:

• \( Current\ Weight \) — Puppy's current weight in pounds or kilograms
• \( Current\ Age\ in\ Weeks \) — Puppy's current age in weeks (1-52)

Explanation: This formula projects the puppy's growth trajectory based on the assumption that most dogs reach their adult size by 52 weeks (1 year).

3. Importance of Weight Prediction

Details: Predicting adult weight helps with proper nutrition planning, appropriate exercise routines, and preparing for the dog's space and equipment needs as an adult.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the puppy's current weight (in either pounds or kilograms) and current age in weeks (between 1-52). The result will be in the same unit as the input weight.
