| Re: Weight?
Not being able to see ribs is good. Area behind ribs should be slightly recessed. One of the worst things you could do to this type of dog is over-feed and make them fat. It puts a big strain on joints and causes visits to the vet. We been working on some weight management with our dogs and have reduced both of their food intakes to 1 cup of canidae kibble twice a day supplemented with green beans or another type of non-fattening filler.
It's real easy to put weight on but very difficult to take it back off.
