| Need Help Getting Pup to Gain Weight Hello, I have a 7 month old puppy that cannot gain weight or muscle mass. She has good days where she eats a lot and some where she does not want anything. She has a few health problems: low sugar, low iron, heart murmur, right heart valve failure leaking fluid into abdomen, enlarged jugular vein. She is under 2 pounds, closer to maybe 1 & 1/2 lbs. I believe she will start feeling better if I can get some meat on her little bones, any suggestions are greatly appreciated! |

| You could try Dyne. it's a high calorie supplement. You might have to order it. I got it from Revival. |
