ginga john 268 Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 if he's shedding weight fast he's sick, if its been gradual then it could be a few things, Drontal doesn't kill all types of worm poach, to find out feed him a quarter of a loaf of well buttered brown bread every other day for two weeks, if he's still thin then its off to the vetinary.

Bevwallis 7 Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 Those of mine wintering out are eating double their summer quota per day. If you are feeding him well,have wormed the dog and provided adequate bedding i would be at the vets tbh Hope you can work this out Quote Link to post Share on other sites
