Dog's weight need help.

I have a young Plott coming 2 seems to be a little lite on weight how can I get more weight on him? He's worm free.

I'm going to up the feed on this dog to see if that helps, he acts healthy just under weight!

Some dogs have a natural light ideal weight and if you can put on a little weight it will just come right back off really fast

Try adding some cream and eggs to his feed. Some dogs just have a higher metabolic rate and will not get fat no matter the feed. Dog could have a thyroid problem, overactive thyroid can cause or make gaining weight impossible. Dave

Thanks, trying some olive oil on his food and feeding him 2 times a day.

I always had luck with feeding a high fat dry dog food and adding a can of Mackerel 2X a week for about a month.

Good Luck

Tim

Tim is correct on this. The mackerel will add it on. I always did a half can morning and night every other day. Works good!!
