watchman 256 Posted October 23, 2009 Report Share Posted October 23, 2009 ok fella,you want a low protein diet not more than 24% you dont want the bones growing to fast and becoming weak get it onto a adult feed this will stop the pup growing to quick and the bones not setting properly,plenty of exercise,sunshine and maybe a vitamin D suppliment this should re-harden the bones but only the vet will be able to tell you if your gonna have any lasting problems Quote Link to post Share on other sites

albert64 1,882 Posted October 23, 2009 Report Share Posted October 23, 2009 so you dont know its got ricketts? never seen it in owning dogs 30 odd years you should know everything there is to know about diet the questions you,ve been asking. if its only a pup they change all the time while there growing ie big nuckles, feet that look straight one day and turned out the next give it a proper diet complete feed, meat, tripe, chicken extra calcium if in doubt get it to a vets because if it is rickets its neglect on your part did you used to be called country boyo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
