What size is a Pumi?

Pumis are small to medium-sized dogs. Males should weigh about 27 to 29 pounds, and females typically weigh 22 to 24 pounds. Male Pumis typically stand 16 to 18.5 inches tall at the shoulder, while females are slightly smaller, ranging from 15 to 17.5 inches.

Several factors influence a Pumi’s final size, including genetics, diet, and exercise. Genetics plays the biggest role, as a Pumi’s size can be influenced by the specific breeding lines they come from. Diet is also important — providing balanced nutrition during puppyhood helps ensure they grow to their proper size. Regular exercise, especially in a working breed like the Pumi, can also support their muscle development and overall body condition.
