I need to try and get a picture of him, though... you really can truly tell only if you feel him... but he's FINALLY really starting to put on some weight and his skin and coat feel wayyy amazing and soft.
He's been getting a 1/3 cup of Kirkland mixed with 1/3 cup of Innova in the morning. He gets roughly about a handful of Evo at some point during the day because I use EVO RM Small bites as training treats. Then in the evening he gets raw. Lately he's been on Satin balls to help him put on some weight. I usually put 1-2 small handfuls of the satin balls in a bowl with a little bit of canned pumpkin and occasionally some plain yogurt. Some nights he gets raw chicken thighs or backs. He actually does really well with the thighs. He eats it slow enough that I'm not worried about him not chewing and practically swallowing the bones whole. Cristy can vouch for his good raw eating skills lol. The first day I gave him a chicken he was unsure what to do with it, but he's really getting the hang of it.
Also... I'm adding some supplements to his dinners as well. I have the Digestive Enhancer from Natures Farmacy. That's to help out since I've been switching him to a more raw based diet. He also gets the Ultimate supplements from Natures Farmacy and the Gain and Shine which is really helping out with him gaining the weight he needs...
He's still a skinny dog and I think he's always going to be lean... but now he actually looks healthier and when you rub his belly you don't feel like you're rubbing an accordion when you run your hands on rib cage area. You can barely see his ribs but can still slightly feel them which is how I like them.
Anyways... wanted to brag on him a little bit because I'm so happy that he's starting to look so much better. I eventually want to go to a complete full raw diet, but I don't have a chest freezer to buy in bulk so I'm just sticking with a partial raw diet for now.
I need to get some new pictures of him... like FAST
