click here An Intro To Raw Feeding and read and then ask any questions you have. We'd love to help with this. There are a few really important things to know but why don't you read first and see if it sounds good for you and your dog.

Yes after seeing the picture he def looks like he needs to fatten up a bit imo. I am no Vet though. What has your Vet said about it?

I would also have to agree and say he is on the thin side, not emaciated but he does look thin because of his ribs being easily visible and in the hip area. We've also had weight issues with our BRIX, and the vet thought he could have EPI.

We feed him a little more and he was fine afterwards. At 10 months, he's still growing and using a lot of energy. The feeding amounts on the food package are just guidelines.
