Condition-1: boomer cannot weigh the most because statement-2, and it cannot be at the middle because of statement-1, so boomer weighs least.

Fido-10kg.
Rover-5kg.
Boomer-3kg.

I think the answer of this question is C (uncertain)
Because,
According to first statement.
Weight of (Rover < Fido).
According to second statement;
Weight of(Rover > Boomer).
But there is also a chance that Weight of ( Rover > Boomer > Fido and also Rover > Fido > Boomer).
So the answer is Uncertain.
Because,
According to first statement.
Weight of (Rover < Fido).
According to second statement;
Weight of(Rover > Boomer).
But there is also a chance that Weight of ( Rover > Boomer > Fido and also Rover > Fido > Boomer).
So the answer is Uncertain.
