Question
I have a white german shepher about 10-11 months, she is very hyper, My question is she eats without any problems but she won't put any weight on, I have tried every food there is, Every one thinks that I starve her she is so skinny, in fact she is so skinny you can see her ribs. Can you please please help me...
Thank you

Answer
How badly do the ribs show?  What does your vet say?  Many young Shepherds won't eat enough to completely keep their ribs hidden.  The vet has carefully checked, and rechecked for worms including tape worms?  As long as she eats it, I would choose a food you are comfortable with and just slowly keep feeding more and more until she slowly starts putting on a little more weight.  

I was once give a young Lab you could see her ribs.  She didn't start to gain weight until I was feeding her 7 cups of Pro Plan a day.  The amounts listed on the package are only a starting place for the average dog.  Some dogs need more or less.  As long as she eats it, just give her whatever it takes.  I have never seen any controlled tests suggesting one type of dog chow is better than another.
