Red Center 165 Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 Little bit light on the back end but that may just be her build. I wouldn't worry too much, people telling you how your dog should look don't know her as well as you do. If you think she can put a bit on then she probably can Quote Link to post

Qbgrey 4,089 Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 I'd say a bit thin.I do like a heavyish doh tho.some dogs don't work well on cereals.with all artificial crap in it.flesh feed it it will do it good Quote Link to post
skycat 6,173 Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 Bearing in mind that photos do make dogs look fatter in general, I still wouldn't say she looks underweight. Look at her legs; they are very fine boned, and that type of build wouldn't easily carry any more weight; and you can only see the last couple of ribs, which is how a running dog should look in my opinion. I wonder what 'a couple of lads' are comparing her with when they say she is underweight? Quote Link to post
TROY_BOY 62 Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 i think you should know your own dogs best running weight if you work it regular enough running weight is a very important thing especially for a coursing dog Quote Link to post
Anthony Simmons 22 Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 A freind has a dog same build as yours his is a collie/whippet/grey, me and a couple of friends used to give him a bit of grief saying his was under weight needed feeding up and all that, it wasn't until we saw how much food it actually ate and not really put weight on and it's wormed regular, weve realised now thats how its built theres nothing wrong with it, someone even reported him to the rspca they came out checked him, his verdict was its a lurcher.....
