What type of dog?

What does it weigh now?

What do you feed it at the moment?

How often do you feed it, ie once of twice a day?

Is it the only dog or is there competition?

Is the dog a picky eater?

Does the dog live indoors or out?

Do you worm regularly?

type of dog = 3/8 bull 5/8grey 12 weeks or so

weight = havent weighed him but she is slightly under

feed? = a selection... sometimes raw meat or if she turns her nose up at it i try canned food... usually ped chum puppy food!

how often do i feed it = twice a day, sometimes 3

competition = she is the only pup

picky eater = yes

indoors or out = out doors... under a heat lamp

wormed regularly = yes

 

 

sorry to rob the mans thread but i've asked a couple of times before and i've had no replies... vet says she is ok but wouldnt need to lose much more... i left her unfed tis'mornin and fed her there now thinkin she would be eager but she only gobbled down a bit??

 

she is a tiny bit lighter now from when this pic was taken

steak ,it will pack the dog with goodness , an its got the highest creatine content in , out of all the meats , .................. ever heard the saying [ as fit as a butchers dog ] but not too much for terriers , it packs the size on that quick,

Breast of lamb is excellent, in saying that your dog is just a pup and looks well to me. I personally don't feed bones to a pup until they have their proper teeth come through.

 

Putting too much weight on the dog at that age will just be fat, it wont be packing on any proper muscle until its fully grown.

this might sound silly but i always thought a chubby pup would grow to a better size than one that wasnt gettin down his grub??? i've been gettin her some steaks... should they be partially cooked or fed raw???
