I'm a little concerned. Hank, the newest addition to our family has only gained 4 pounds in the past three weeks. We're guessing he's a great dane/dalmation/pit mix. We don't expect him to get very big, he's ten months old and about the size of a female lab and he's got a goofy kind of lanky build. He only weighs 55 Lbs!!! He dosen't look sickly, but he isn't filling out very much.
I feed him 4 cups of large breed food per day. His appetite is good and he shows no sign of lethargy, vomiting, or discomfort at all. I'm taking a stool sample to the vet tomorrow just to make sure there's no intesinal parasites.
Anybody have a similar expierience with thier dog? I'm planning on just feeding him more if his stool sample comes out clean. Am I just over-reacting?
