Higher metabolism. He is constantly moving. And had a field body. But he needs to gain a few lbs. He was 58lbs last time. And i know he lost atleast a lb.

Ok, that makes sense. So it is nothing you are too concerned about?

That’s good! Have you tried free feeding him? Do you think he would be good with that?

Hmmm interesting. Have you tried a higher calorie food like Pro Plan or Inukshuk or similar? Or like the 30/20 working dog foods? It might help. As well as increasing his food intake. He might not be getting enough food. Some dogs just require A LOT of food when younger or in general and it can seem ridiculous but it’s just how they are.

No he was as a puppy before i got him. He would eat all the food at once and there is 2 dogs in this house. So that wouldnt be good.
