These cuties turned 4 weeks old today 🎉 and between their yogurt-covered faces, wiggly play sessions, and adorable naps, we thought it would be fun to share a little AI experiment along with some of our favorite candid photos from the last few days. Tomorrow, we’ll take their official 4-week portraits, but for now you get to see their sweet, messy, real-life selves 🐾💗
✨ Ever wonder how big puppies will be when they grow up? 🧐 We get this question all the time, and while there’s no crystal ball, we teamed up with a little help from AI 🤖 to make our best-ever predictions for how our Dreamland pups might size up when they’re full grown! 💕
Here’s what went into our predictions (and yes, it’s a lot 😅):
📊 Every recorded weight since birth (yep, we’ve been tracking it all)
🧬 Both parents’ actual adult weights (Louie is 19 lbs, Ember is 24 lbs)
🧬 Both parents’ genetically predicted adult weights from Embark.
🐾 The exact breed makeup of both parents: Golden Retriever, Standard Poodle, and Miniature Poodle percentages
📏 Skull and muzzle circumference for each puppy
📈 And finally… a hybrid growth model that blends the standard growth curves for medium, mini, and standard-sized dogs, adjusted based on breed percentages and body type
AI helped us crunch the numbers, spot trends, and balance all the variables to get the most accurate guesstimates possible. It’s part science, part experience, part puppy magic ✨🐶
Here’s what we came up with 👇
🌌 Twilight 🌌 – 3 lb 12.7 oz
Smallest skull and muzzle, leaner build, trending toward the petite side.
Projected adult weight: 22 to 25 lbs
☁️💤 Dream ☁️💤 – 3 lb 13.4 oz
Biggest skull and muzzle, solid frame, round belly, strong growth.
Projected adult weight: 25 to 28 lbs
📚 Fable 📚 – 3 lb 12.7 oz
The only boy in the bunch! Wide skull and muzzle, stocky frame.
Projected adult weight: 25 to 28 lbs
🌙 Moonbeam 🌙 – 3 lb 14.4 oz
Balanced build, consistent gainer, medium-wide skull and muzzle.
Projected adult weight: 24 to 27 lbs
🎶 Lullaby 🎶 – 3 lb 13 oz
Smallest skull and muzzle, compact build, slower and steadier growth.
Projected adult weight: 21 to 24 lbs
🌟 Wish 🌟 – 3 lb 10.6 oz
Slightly lighter but wide-framed, lovely proportions.
Projected adult weight: 24 to 27 lbs
Of course, puppies love to keep us guessing 🐾 but watching them grow, and learning from all these little details, is one of the most fascinating parts of raising them 💕
