Best Food,
Hi Guys,
Just fostering a very wormy puppy at the moment, who is quite thin, I have given him Drontal but just wanted your opinions on the best food to give him at the moment. Thanks. |

Innove dog or puppy food is great to add the weight on. It was very hard to keep weight on my boxer being so active. I just love it!

Thanks for your super quick response Sharky. I'm over here in the Uk and have had a look on the web for innove puppy food, but no luck! Any ideas if it goes under a different name in the UK?

I second Innova. It is very good, and very high energy. I don't know about for putting the extra pounds on though. Since it is very high quality, a dog doesn't need much of it to get enough nutrients. But too much is... too much. It's 2000 calories per cup. I only feed 50% innova because my already hyper pup gets way too hyper!
It is great for health though... |

I'm not familiar with what foods are available in the UK, sorry.
If he's just been de-wormed he might have a little bit of a touchy stomach, a bland diet (some rice and a bit of boiled white-meat chicken is what I use) with a tiny bit of canned pumpkin (NOT pumpkin pie filling, but pure pumpkin.) can help settle his stomach a little bit and help with the explosive diarrhea that puppies get after being de-wormed and/or having their diet changed. It's definitely not a long-term diet, though, I only do it for a couple of days if one of my dogs has a problem. |

Be carefull as you want to put weight on slowly, if he is now on a good diet then he should slowly put condition back on, what foods are availiable to you and in your price range?
