Add some dry food to her diet or brown bread. That's what worked for my bitch, she packed it on. Also when feeding raw I always add veg a few times a week.

 

Sure others will have their own ways but that's what's worked for me.

just like kids when growing they grow out and then upwards and so on until they stop growing, As long as its receiving the correct type and amount of food, i wouldn't be to concerned.

Feeding a dog bread when they make dry dog food makes absolutely zero sense at all. The dry feed is bad enough let alone feedin them f****n wheat.

[j1985 1,984]

f***ing works tho!

[Dan Edwards 1,134]

f*****g works tho!

 

Not it doesnt. Why would feeding them wheat be more beneficial than just feeding more dry kibble? You have zero clue about basic nutrition obviously.

[Dan Edwards 1,134]

And if a 10 month old's pin bones are showing, "You are doing it wrong!"

 

The dog is either wormy or you are simply not feeding enough. There is zero reason though why a dog would need to eat dog gone bread at anytime during its entire life. Makes absolute zero sense whatsoever. I dont care what grandpappy dont know shit told you.

[Dan Edwards 1,134]

Bread is nothin but a carb which there are plenty of in dry dog feed. Bread costs a shit ton more per calorie too cuz its human grade. And wheat is utter shit and is horrible for not only the dog but you also. Ya ya we all eat it but that dont make it right. Carbs 4 cals per gram. Dont matter how you want to debate it thats the bottom line and bread is more costly than dog feed so why in the hell would you feed it. A descent cup of dog feed is goin to have 400 plus cals in it and its way way cheaper than some nasty ass wheat bread.

Thats pretty much my point. Just cuz folks have always done it dont make it right. If people would just stand back and evaluate the situation and have just a basic knowledge of nutrition about them they would say, "What the f**k am I doing that for?" And then they would just stop doin silly shit that dont matter.
