Hi everyone, for some reason Snickers, won't put any weight on! GRRRR!

She runs around like the wind, eats like a pig, does her business out side. But just won't put weight on! I do not want her fat, but I do not want all these ribs showing either!

I took her stole into the vets. All clear! So, now what do I do? She acts like she's never eaten a day in her life. I do not random feed, I do not believe in it!

Now Ginger on the other hand, eats sleeps and is marry! Putting on weight, and looking wonderful! So do I get Snickers checked for thyroids what do I do?

Dogs do not get hyper-thyroid. They do however get hypo-thyroid, but that would make your dog fat and have trouble loosing weight.

What food are you feeding, what breed is your dog, how old and how much food are you giving?

Some dogs burn a lot of energy just being alive, it's in their genetic make-up. Have you considered an active, higher protein/fat/calorie food?
