Here's a quick outline of a feeding program -

Breakfast -

3 x Lucky dog biscuit bones (about 4 inchs long)
or you could feed a couple bits of toast with vegie on. Or a couple of weetbix with a splash on milk the rest water in a cup. (be careful not too much milk gives the dog the runs)

Afternoon snack - A couple of Lucky dog biscuits or a handfull of the dried food your feeding.

Tea - Feed your nightly feed of kibble. (At present I'm using meaty bites). Add your snags and any left overs from your tea. ie pasta, rice, fat from the chops etc.

To add weight fairly quickly - You need to feed a fatty content of meat. ie lard from the supermarket, puppy mince from the pet shop. But as I said firstly go the snags cheap, and they do the job.

As for how long I would feed for, would be up to you. When he starts to look filled out, you can cut back on his feed abit.



There's a lot of great posts on this subject Morgan, you won't (or can't) go wrong.
