I'm really landed with her , think she may need a little feeding up tho , think she is just slightly on the slim side , she is 10 weeks old , going to slowly change her over to complete puppy food as she is on adult at the mo , any suggestions for any thing I can supplement the complete food with to help her put a little weight on ?

she looks an intelligent little thing, i know youve been waiting for your 1st lurcher, so joking apart all the best with her, scrambled eggs fer breakfast mixed i with some wholemeal bread, other folks on here will be glad to impart their knowledge with you, if you are struggling at the moment with raw, which i suggest, then by all means get a good complete puppy food, extra protein which your puppy needs, ive used red mills puppy complete in the past , hope ive helped,

Thanks Mate, I would feel more comfortable with complete as a staple and supplement that with proteins, that way I can be sure she is getting everything that she needs to grow and be healthy in the complete , and then extra goodness that comes with good old meat raw or not lol

 

When My other dog was a pup 6 years ago now she was on minced chicken and complete then slowly over to complete only , with a little scramble egg , sardines etc every other day for a bit then complete only

If you feel more comfortable using a complete, then thats fine and right by the dog, as you say, you can be sure she is getting everything she needs, but treat her to some chicken wings occasionaly, she will luve em, didnt the breeder give u a diet sheet, :bye:
