Hi
When we rescued our River April 17th, she weighed 98 lbs (according to my Vet's scale). I just took her in this morning and she is up to 106.4lbs. So, 8 lbs in 2 months, is this a good rate of weight gain? I didn't talk to my vet I just popped in with her to use their scale. Having had surgery on both kness I will certainly keep her on the slim slide but even now she is still kind of boney (although not as much as she was). I was thinking if I gained 8lbs in 2 months that would be too quick, but I'm not underweight. Any thoughts?.....
By the way, she is a totally awesome Newf - so thankful she's ours!
thanks,
Marina
