| How to put more weight on Slade is insanely long, thats just how he's built and he also has a thinner build. However, I was playing with him today and noticed i could feel his hip bones. obviously that is not good. He is a very healthy, active dog. He is free fed for the most part, but eats at least a cup of food a day... but more if he wants. He is on a high quality food- Taste of the Wild. He also gets several treats during the day. Its a bit difficult to tell exactly how skinny he is because of all his fluff, but i do think he definitely should put some more weight on since i can feel his hip bones! I can't home cook for him or do raw at this time. Anything else that i can do to put more weight on him? i don't want people to think i'm starving my poor boy!

| Good Post! I don't have any ideas, but Bella could also put some weight on her. I'm interested to see what's suggested!
