Well, For most larger dogs, it can take up to two years. Smaller dogs grow their bodies faster. Many dogs, even large breeds, will reach their full size by the age of 8-10 months, but their metabolism won't be that of a "fully grown" adult dog until 18 months to two years. As noted above, the process doesn't take as long for small dogs, who are often full size by four months with an adult metabolism by 12 months.

Does a papillon puppy lose its fur?

Yes! Papillons go through a period around 4 months old...warmly referred to as the "puppy uglies". Your Papillon is just shedding his/her puppy fur to make way for the long silky fur of an adult. The adult coat will not come fully in until your dog reaches the age of 2-3 years.
