Recommended Posts

my lurcher pups somtimes look a bit tin they get fed twice a day on pedro gold and also get boild chicken its just sometimes could it be as there getting older and taking a strecth there wormed to date cant put my finger on it its only the odd time they go like that i feed them a lot of feed so that isnt the issue any toughts on this tanxs

 

 

a pup should be well covered all the time ence the word (puppy fat), and more so this time of the year :yes: .When you say fed twice a day, how much is 1 meal in portion etc. My pup Buck on 2 feeds a day, he as 1lb raw mince chicken and 4 1/2 mid size cups of high protein in a day. even when they start to shoot up and go leggy they should still well coverd. how old is your pup ,? mine 5 month old 23 in and pleny of meat on him to keep him warm in his kennel :yes:

Make sure there kept nice and warm if kept in a kennel, add abit of suet to their main meal once a day through the winter months.

Our 3 pups have 2 heat lamps on through the night, and 1 on through the day time, good luck with them.

Sometimes its as well to feed smaller meals but more often.

My pups are still fed 4 times a day ,and they're 15 weeks old.I'll do this until they're 6 months old, then drop them down to 3 meals a day :thumbs:

Its easier for them to digest, and they aren't overloaded this way.

Also mine have raw chicken wings every day

Add some pics ,they might not be as thin as you're thinking :thumbs:

Simply not to overload their stomach.

I'm not saying everyone should feed this way, but being retired I'm in a postion to be able to.
