I have a headcanon that Spike's growth in this episode is abnormal, which is why he didn't get wings and had the body frame that he did. While it is normal for dragons to grow by greed, it usually happens slowly enough for the dragon to get their wings at about the teenage phase. Spike's greed-induced growth was abnormally fast and resulted in the Godzilla-like flightless dragon that Spike became in this episode. Allowed to grow normally he would still have a bulky figure but would be closer to a traditional dragon.
