Bently is now 17 weeks old is has gained almost two pounds in the last couple of weeks.......

I don't think we are overfeeding him..... he is on Science Diet and gets a little bit of boiled white chicken each day (maybe two teaspoons and 1 teaspoon of apple every other day..... as for the Science Diet I hand feed him at night and don't force him. I feed him until he stops eating, which usually is pretty quick. He does still get treats when he goes outside and P's&P's..... usually about 3 to 4 treats a day expecially on weekends.

We run in the backyard every night and have been taking him on walks around the block at least 3 times a week.

Should I be worried or is he just a growing boy?

Thanks
