I need my dog to gain weight

Hello I was just wondering i have a dog is an american pitbull terrier but he doesnt gain weight i already used redcell to see if that would help but it doesnt i mean he does gain weight but his body doesnt change he looks the same but heavier so i would like to know if any one knows how to make him gain weight and for him to look bigger . Some people says that is because i make him do a lot of excercise but i guess that is not the reason and i checked him for all type of worms and he is clean i would really appreciate it if someone could help me

jennapbt disagrees: If he wanted to fight his dogs he wouldnt want them big, they need to be slender and muscular to fight..duh

Since the last post to this old thread, I have added a sticky on the subject of dogs not eating enough at http://www.askmehelpdesk.com/dogs/in...tml#post254171

It contains a link to a better guide to evaluating a dogs condition than my earlier post. Dogs are genetically programed to reach a certain size. Feeding more will only lead to life shortening obesity. you can condition tem to build more muscle. If you work them excessively before a year or2 old, you can damage their joints.

This post has 3 major flaws in descending order:

1 The recipe includes raw eggs which can cause food poising not only in the dog, but also in a person that doesn't wash their hands after preparing them or handling them. Even if the vet referenced really was a vet, a few of them are kooks, lacking the support of most other vets.

2 There is nothing in the thread to suggest it is the sort of emergency where tempting the dog with rich food is necessary. As I explain in the sticky, already referenced in this thread, http://www.askmehelpdesk.com/dogs/in...tml#post254171 it is nearly always the wrong thing to do.

3 It helps nobody to dig up old threads and post bad answers long after the problem was solved.
