Most Labrador Retrievers reach their adult weight by around 15 months (65 weeks).
As a large-sized breed, your Labrador Retriever reaches adult size by 14-18 months. Larger breeds have a longer growth phase. Feeding a large-breed-specific puppy food during this period supports proper bone and joint development.
Individual dogs may reach full size slightly earlier or later. Spayed or neutered puppies may also have slightly different growth timelines. Regular vet checkups are the best way to track your Labrador Retriever's progress.

Because Labrador Retrievers are a large-sized breed, look for a large breed puppy formula designed for their growth needs. Controlled calcium and phosphorus for joint health.
Feed puppy-specific food until your Labrador Retriever reaches adult size (around 15 months), then transition to an adult formula over 7–10 days.
