Question
i have a year and 4 month old pit. she is skinny how can i put weight on her. she doesn't like to eat it seems like she is very picky. when i find something she likes she only eats it for a few weeks, and then wants something else. she doesn't look sick but she isn't very molecular. i weighed her the other day  she ways 50 pounds, but for her height i think she should be around 70

Answer
Hi Wes- Glad you asked this question.  Sounds like you have a challenge with your Pit Girl.

See if you can get the following : canned foods.


See if you can put her on Solid Gold's Bark at the Moon formula. It is high in protein and excellent for gaining weight and muscle mass. It is also a holistic formula, so no by-products or -meals in it. AND no corn! It's a wonderful food for all dogs. You can find this at a pet store.  

Another good one is Innova Evo - this is 99.9 % meat and no junk fillers.  

You can use 80% canned and do 20% dry kibble... The kibble you should buy is Innova, Wellness Formula, or Eagle Pack.

Also, you should use a great Supplement that is high quality...  My company has one for only 20.00 per month.  It is a great taste wafer treat.  Give it a try... If she doesn't like it they will refund your money... Take our taste test and see.  I bet she will love it.

You can call Joan and she will walk you thru the first order of NuVET Plus Wafer treats...  Tell here Marie sent you: Pet professional 81098...  Ask her about our guarantee, too.
1-800-474-7044  ( ext 265)  - She is there 8-4 California Time zone Monday to Friday;

Let me know if you need other suggestions on foods.  You can also give her pumpkin in her food.  Pumpkin filling is found in the canned fruit and veggie area - Pure Pumpkin pie filling.  Most dogs love it... ( 1/2 cup 2 x per day)  You can also do some sweet potato if she doesn't like the pumpkin.
