huh? I don't eat yogurt. Bleck. If I buy it; its for the dogs. Its got probiotics in it that helps with their tummy.

damn forgot bacon grease.

 

Re: My little boy is super skinny; But Can't increase food without upsetting his stom

1/4 cup ground beef
1 cup oatmeal cooked
1/2 cup dandilion greens cooked
1/8 cup olive oil or lard
1 cup high quality food

feed this mixture 3 times a day until desired weight is reached

continue feeding this mixture 2 times a day to maintain weight

slowly decrease the added items and increase the kibble back to normal amount

Dog looks like he will get fine on his own feed a raw diet go get him a bag of legsand thighs and just let him have it give him one and see if he can have half another. . He dont look that bad at all yall are just used to fat dogs that dog really looks like a good raw diet and good wormer ever month. and stop trying to bulk him up he will look great in 3 months I promiss.

 

Re: My little boy is super skinny; But Can't increase food without upsetting his stom

what is the dog like in general,, is its health ok. the way its holding its head in these pics makes it look ill.

 

Re: My little boy is super skinny; But Can't increase food without upsetting his stom

Have you ever seen a dog shy of the camera? He also isn't use to being positioned and posed.

Anyways he is healthy otherwise.

I also like some of the ideas and points listed. No I don't shop at Sam's, though once my husband starts this new job in August I will be able to. ^^ I also cannot start raw at this time; but I plan on switching ALL of the dogs to Raw eventually. I don't think a raw and kibble diet will hurt at all while I try and put weight on him.

Where would you get Dandilion Greens at?

 

Re: My little boy is super skinny; But Can't increase food without upsetting his stom

ill would say geve him red mead and stumags 1 kl a day and this in combination with a small peas off the food he gets at this moment.

 

Re: My little boy is super skinny; But Can't increase food without upsetting his stom

also put some fish oil on his food

 

Re: My little boy is super skinny; But Can't increase food without upsetting his stom

Lovepup you can get all the dandilion greens you want out of my yard. lol

 

Re: My little boy is super skinny; But Can't increase food without upsetting his stom

LOL.... I would have them in my yard buy my husband mowed.

@yearich - He already takes fish oil tabs. But the red meat I was thinking about but don't know if I should right now.

 

Re: My little boy is super skinny; But Can't increase food without upsetting his stom

Its probably the feed, he might be sensitive to an ingredient and can't digest/metabolize the nutrients.

 

Re: My little boy is super skinny; But Can't increase food without upsetting his stom

But would he be able to digest the food at a lower amount v.s a higher amount? I would think if it was stomach issues with the food this would have been happening the whole time.

 

Re: My little boy is super skinny; But Can't increase food without upsetting his stom

I had one with some stomach issues, changed her feed, added some raw ingredients and it's made all the difference. You could spread the meals out if you have the time but if nothing changes, unless it's a parasite it's probably the feed.

 

Re: My little boy is super skinny; But Can't increase food without upsetting his stom

I've divided his meals out to 3 times a day; a total of 3 cups. And so far no side effects.

 

Re: My little boy is super skinny; But Can't increase food without upsetting his stom

Then your on the right track

 

Re: My little boy is super skinny; But Can't increase food without upsetting his stom

Mmhm. When my husband gets paid Thursday I'm going to look for something to add to his food to help with his weight. As well as a different dog food that has more calories for how active he is. Snow is pretty active too so it shouldn't hurt her.

You can keep on screwing around with kibble and keep having isues with that dog or you can feed RAW and Everything will work it self out. That is the only thing you need to do. But by all meens the kibble co needs to make money so keep on puting shit down him and then your kible co can make money then your vet can make some money But it will make the Chickens happy.
