So if definitely the right age, something is wrong... and something equally wrong that the breeder didn't tell you about it from the start.
I remember reading about Grizzly last year and thinking the weight was so low something had to be wrong somewhere. But now he looks healthy and the right size.
Getting odd weights is not hard to do, especially with lesser equipment, which is what I'd expect a breeder to use (not a knock BTW). They move around a lot, and, since the weight isn't that much, small changes can result in big changes in the weight. Plus there are lots of ways to get it wrong, including not calibrating for whatever you put the pup in.
If all the pups were weighed every day then things become much clearer. How does the weight of one compare to another? Was the birth weight low? For all? One? Did they have a period when they stopped putting on weight? A history makes things a lot easier.
