lamping lad 96 Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 Alright just a quick question my saluki bitch doesn't seem to be gaining weight? All my dogs have a varied diet and are fed plenty of raw feed they also have breakfast every know and then! she's also been wormed so I really don't know what to do.. Was thinkin' about a few smaller meals during the day? Cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tiny 7 1,694 Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 Try adding some carbs and to her diet. And two meals one in the morning one at night see how she goes you might have to up the size of her meals also Quote Link to post Share on other sites
slip lead 862 Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 Some dogs burn more calories than others (nervous/hyper/ and so on) so need different diets. Most white meat doesn't have enough fat content, so the above dogs need a fatty red meat diet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shaunpowell 130 Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 Try tripe mate all my saluki x pile the weight on with it. Some salukis are boney though at shaun Quote Link to post Share on other sites

desertbred 5,490 Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 if its a heavily saturated saluki, try reducing its protien intake and up the carbs a bit 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
slip lead 862 Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 Does the dog act hungry or just looks a little under weight Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tiny 7 1,694 Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 As lofti says try a different wormer. And make sure you are getting the weight right to the kg tablets 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
