Putting weight on skinny dogs

THE BEST AND MOST COST EFFECTIVE WAY TO ADD WEIGHT TO A DOG. GO TO WALMART AND BUY YOU A TUB OF LARD. ITS THE ONE IN THE GREEN/WHITE BUCKET, JUST STRAIGHT LARD. ITS ABOUT 7 OR 8 BUCKS FOR A 5 LB TUB. START OUT BY ADDING A TABLESPOON TO THEIR FEED. SOMETIMES, THE LARD CAN GIVE THEM THE RUNS IF YOU USE TOO MUCH, SO MONITOR THE STOOL, A SKELETON DOG DOESN'T NEED THE RUNS. I HAVE FOUND THAT A TABLESPOON IS ABOUT RIGHT. GET THE CHEAPEST HAMBURGER MEAT IN THE STORE, AND GIVE THEM ABOUT A 1/2 LB OF HAMBURGER MEAT MIXED IN WITH THEIR DRY FOOD AND A TABLESPOON OF LARD. RUN SOME HOT WATER OVER THE FEED AFTER YOU GET IT MIXED UP, BUT NOT TOO MUCH. JUST ENOUGH TO KEEP THE DOG FROM SCARFFING IT DOWN TOO FAST AND GETTING CHOKED. WHEN YOU ADD TOO MUCH WATER TO THE FEED, IT CAUSES THE INTESTINAL TRACT TO EVACUATE TO QUICKLY, WHICH ACTUALLY REDUCES THE ABSORBTION RATE OF THE FOOD. ALSO,YOU CAN BUY A 10 LB. BAG A CHICKEN LEG QUARTERS PRETTY CHEAP. FEED THEM MORNING AND NIGHT. GIVE THEM THE DOG FOOD W/HAMBURGER AND LARD ON ONE FEEDING, THEN ON THE SECOND FEEDING, GIVE THEM A WHOLE "RAW" CHICKEN LEG QUARTER. IN 10 DAYS, YOU WON'T RECOGNIZE HOW GOOD THE DOG LOOKS.

DE-WORM THEM FOR 3 DAYS IN A ROW WITH SAFEGUARD (AT THE CORRECT DOSE). ALSO, THE DOGS MAY HAVE A TAPEWORM INFESTATION. THEY POSSIBLY COULDHVE HAD TAPEWORMS FOR A GOOD LONG TIME. GIVE THEM SOME DRONCIT TABLETS (1 PILL PER 15 LS.).
