low plains drifter 10,685 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 two different pics,its the second bitch im on about,more fat in the diet to bulk her out.........suggestions please Either get a complete food that is at least 25% protein and 16% fat: this is listed on the side of the bag of dog food, OR, get some breast of lamb (ribs and flaps). 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? both bitches last wormed month ago,tables off a well known member on here,your listing food stuffs she been getting from day one first year she looked good this year seems to have gone down hill To get a complete picture of her diet up to now, what brand of wormer did you use and what complete are you using. A wormed dog with a decent complete diet would not be like that without an underlying problem and that could be anything so I would take her to the vets. Also do you use anything for external parasites? Dogs can run lean as we all know but she lacked body and coat condition, she may not be matabalising properly. I am not trying to be a pain in the butt, but these are the type of questions that the RSPCA will ask.Take her to the vets now, the rules are simple, you have to act before the dog starts to suffer. Not lecturing you , i am just trying to do you and your dog a favour the type of question the rspca will ask theia a charity and you dont need to answer anything put the dog round your mates till it fattens up if these scum call back to your door start a rigmarole get them to get the police dont speak a word to them Rigmarole,police,calm down calm down,you'll be telling us brookside is coming back next Quote Link to post

BORDERSCOT 3,816 Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 ok iv taken pic off dont need 50 pages cunting me off penny seen it now thats good enough for me,she gets approx 3ib of food a day made up of all thats listed below as borderscott says lamb breasts, ribs, beef, chicken, extra fat in the shape of normal everyday lard mixed with oily tinned fish, ie, mackerel, pilchards or sardines...tripe, chicken wings, caracases...good quality complete (not too much protein), pasta, veg, brown bread... Seriously mate - if u are feeding the dog as you say you are fair play to you - but there must be an underlying problem...if she's eating what you say it is...you need to take her to the vet...i've often sen dogs that aren't the best dooers and can't seem to convert food to bone covering but it's more than that with this bitch...good luck wi her...

weasle 1,119 Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 I didnt see the picture,but i had a dog once who never really muscled,always felt skinny he had a long coat though.He was a fussy enough eater,You could put down the best of food after a decent work out and he would take a bit and leave the rest.If there was a problem i never found it,infact he lived to 15-16.

Guest long-tail Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 well to any doubters out there on my ability to feed a dog she booked in 6 tonight at vets il let you know cheers 1 Quote Link to post
Matt 160 Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 OK, so if the RSPCA turn up, you can soon enough feck them off. What happens when they come back with a copper and a warrant? As others have said, it looks like there is something going on. Get her to the vet today, and if nothing else, you can tell the RSPCA that you are aware of a problem and working with a vet to sort it out. Good luck with it. Quote Link to post
Tiercel 6,986 Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 (edited) just because they left a card dont mean they got right of access True!.... But I was not thinking about you, it is your dogs wellbeing I was thinking about. You have been offered some good advice, none for your benefit all for the dogs. You have had to notice the dog losing condition yet despite giving her extra food and her not putting on weight you still refuse to take her to a vet. Why? To be honest the only reason I could come up with is that you are ashamed of letting the dog get into that condition in the first place? TC Edited to add good on you, just read that you have the appointment at the vets. Edited April 23, 2013 by tiercel Quote Link to post
