If he eats that much dog food why can you see his ribs
ReplyDeleteBecause that's what a healthy dog should look like, if you can't see ribs they are overweight.
DeleteI agree with Brina - he looks way too thin - not only his ribs but his back bone and his hips - he looks very unhealthy. He is beautiful but he needs something that he is not getting. I hope you have a great Vet.

ReplyDeleteIf Zeus is eating that I much a day, then he is most likely likely being fed a crappy brand that's full of fillers and not much nutrition! The owners of Zeus need to do their homework and find a high protein, no filler great quality food for him. After all, he can't pick his own and depends on his owners to make excellent decisions for him.

ReplyDeleteI just feel sad when I see this. I can't believe that ribs and spine showing like this is a sign of good health and I wish I had news that he was in better condition.
ReplyDeleteI only feel sad when I see this beautiful dog so thin. I can't believe that this is healthy...and wish to see news that he has improved.
