Little Butch 16 Posted May 14, 2009 Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 Only you could say, It's your Dog.. Keep Her on the same amount and see what happens, If She starts to put weight on, cut Her food back a little bit Butch Quote Link to post Share on other sites
OldNog 432 Posted May 14, 2009 Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 Have you got a recent photo? Id just keep feeding her the same. Just because she aint being work, dont mean you have to stop the fitness training Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ferret15 0 Posted May 14, 2009 Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 in my opinion you shouldn't see more that the first two ribs as already said some like them leaner but this is lean enough for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

OldNog 432 Posted May 14, 2009 Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 nout wrong with that to me, looks good and fit Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DEKAW 85 Posted May 14, 2009 Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 I take it you feed the dog on dry food...I feed all my dogs a raw diet and have messed about with the amount until im happy and the dogs look in great shape. When im not running them in the summer months i feed them 2.5% of there body weight and during the winter months up it to 3%. Hope this makes sense. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
