Pets grow up so fast. Most of us didn't even notice how the small bean that we took home became a big doggo. Usually, it takes only a year for a dog to fully grow up. So you can see the changes they go through in even a few weeks.
That's exactly what Twitter user @wilkray proved by showing a picture of his pupper Pier at 8 weeks and 8 months. The difference is huge. Pier grew up to be a big dog, as he's not even done growing! People on Twitter liked what they saw. As of right now, the picture has over 700k likes and has even started its own thread. In the thread, people are sharing their own puppers and how much they've grown in a few weeks, months, or years. The whole thread is adorable and it's bound to make you smile.

If any of you have ever adopted a pet and raised them from when they were little, you will understand that seeing them grow up is something else. In weeks, they change so much, not only in size but in personality. Younger puppies are often wilder, doing their business wherever they please, biting, scratching, and many more mischievous adventures. All they require is proper training. Sadly, many people abandon their dogs when they are tiny without seeing them grow up to be amazing family members. So please be ready for lots of chaos when you get a puppy, or any animal, for that matter!
i mean..let's give the girl credit for carrying that big boi 👏👏👏
I just imagined that the owners have shrunk and now I can't unsee it XD
It would be quite fun to be able to get an interview from a dog and for them to tell us what it was like to grow up so fast. However, one has to be realistic and realize that dogs would probably be way more interested in getting food than answering questions. And they would probably not even notice that they grew up. Only that their toys and snacks are smaller.
FLOOF ALERT. THIS IS A FLOOF ALERT. THIS IS NOT A DRILL. FLOOF ALERT.
in the picture on the top right, the doggo looks like: "yeah, i'm adorable, teehee"
We have many articles on Bored Panda about pets growing up. Here is an adorable article about pets that grew up with their toys and refuse to let them go. And here are some before and after pictures of animals growing up together, like a dog growing up with a fox. And last, but not least, dogs growing up with their owners. See how much the pet and their human change over time!
I miss seeing rotts as often as when I was younger. Unfortunately, as with pit bulls and dobermans, they have been banned in some places and hardly see them anymore.
Ugh corgis will always have my heart <3 almost been a month since i lost on of my corgi boys. Lovely dogs indeed
What do you think of this Twitter thread? Would you have something to submit to it? Well, it's not too late! Grab your dog and show us how much they've grown. If you don't have a doggo, it's still fun to scroll through and see all the submissions in the thread.
So? Where does it say that she took the puppy home? I met my dog when she was 1 month old too. We adopted her at 9 weeks.

Load More Replies...let's all agree that dog is a pro when it comes to looks.I mean just look at his little puppy glare and his big boy smile :)
I think his daddy wanted to show off his "growth" too...................and I'm perfectly fine with that.
OMG I could not even look at the doggo on the first pic because of this dude's amazing butt!!! Dude ... baby got back!
unrelated, but she kinda reminds me of Tiffany Haddish. either way, super cute doggo!
Poor dog looks like he's saying "sorry I grew so big" with those eyes!
aww, he's wearing fur socks! (they seem to have grown with him, and it's so fricken cute!!)
A Newfoundland! My dog is a Newfie and he’s as big as this dog! He’s also a huge, snuggly sweetheart!
Hey! I have one of those too! She always finds the narrowest parts of the house to lie down.
omg ive always wanted a newfie and now im definitely getting one when i move out, theyre so fluffy and big like a giant teddy bear. when i get one imma let it get on my couch
My grandma's dog was named buttercup, sadly she died last year and I was devastated and a wreck( I still am):(
So flooooofy! On an unrelated note, does the person in the background have a headache lol?
LOL i didnt notice i had to look. It looks like they have a headache XD

There is no good reason to crop ears as it does not benefit the dog. Poor thing.
Poor dog. I have some nice sharp scissors. I am happy to crop the owners ears just to let him know just how bad it feels. Dogs have exactly the same nervous system as humans.
Poor dog. Cropping is horrible and needs to be illegal everywhere! Probably done by the breeder.
why does he look so scared in the first pic and what's growth surgery does it just make him taller
My puppy looks just like this! But not as big and not as much white on her body.
i have a black pitbull retriever puppy and he looks just like this but he has white on his head in a line
Don't be jealous - he's a sweetie, with an adorable face and cool markings!
Love how the puppy hair is all nice and curly and looks like she just came home from a beauty appt. Grownup looks like she woke up from a week long bender LOL
I hope that one day it becomes illegal everywhere :(

True, however only a teeny tiny percentage of these dogs are actually used as working hunting dogs.
