Question
Ihave a lovely Male Bichon Frise he is 6 months old and weighs 5.9 kilo is this over weight I think he doesnt over eat and gets exercised

Answer
weight is subjective by that I mean if he is a bigger frise then he will be heavier than we would expect at this age.
If his parents are bigger versions then hey he will be bigger too.
I would not even if he is a larger frise like to see him over 6kg at 12 months of age and no more than 7 kg as an adult. Exercise him regularly and make sure all food guides are followed carefully.
for more info on obesity and how to reduce the possibility look at my kennel site
