Mixed Bag 603 Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 Its underweight in the 2nd pic it has nothing on its back no covering on its ribcage and looks weak between the shoulders plus the coat is dull i would put more fat into the diet add something extra to bulk it up Quote Link to post
skycat 6,173 Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 Not surprised someone dobbed you in: the condition of that bitch is a disgrace. Underweight doesn't even begin to describe her. You come on here asking for our approval. Take a long, hard look at that bitch and there is no way you can tell anyone, or yourself if your'e honest, that she is in good condition. Being in good, fit, lean condition is one thing, but that dog is a bag of bones. Look at the way the shoulder blades stick up, and you can count all her ribs, not just the last two as you should be able to. Plus you can count every vertebrae in her spine. Get feeding that bitch now with some good quality food, not just any old cheap cereal based crap. the bones on her shoulders should be covered with muscle as well, whereas she has nothing there. What are you feeding the bitch on now, and how much? Quote Link to post
LaraCroft 863 Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 I am not doubting your care, but I can also see why the call was made. Make sure you have plenty of food in stock, and mention you know she is a low weight, and it isn't easy keeping weight on her. Quote Link to post

iworkwhippets 12,651 Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 More going on with that dog than just grub, a vet is what it needs, should never be allowed to get in that condition 1 Quote Link to post

Feed her twice a day: two smaller meals are better than one big meal. She needs protein (meat or meat based complete food) to put on muscle, and extra calories (fat/carbohydrate) to bulk up properly. Also, when was she last wormed and with what wormer? Quote Link to post
