He is my hungry child. He litterally eats everything he can find.
He seriously finds anything (plastic, rocks, sticks, socks, fabric of any kind, carpet! etc) to tear into peices and swallow! This dog is really keeping me on my toes.
I've never had a dog like this before! He inhales his food like he's never going to eat again and still finds anything he can get into his mouth to eat. As of right now we are having to feed him with the kong wobbler so he doesn't eat as fast.
But, he's lost 2.1 lbs in the last few days and we are feeding him MORE! >_< I thought worms maybe, but we had a fecal and blood test done when we went in to the vets for his ear mites and no wormies at all blood all looked good.
Now I'm not sure what's going on. I don't know if maybe we should up his food or take him back to the vets or what? Vet said he looked really good other than being on the skinny side.
He's skinny enough that I can easily feel ribs. I like my dogs on the skinny side, but this is a bit too skinny IMHO!
He's always been on the boney side though, I'm just concerned about the drop in weight over the last few days.
