Trying to put some weight on our 10 month old lab. Been feeding her Diamond Naturals Puppy, haven't been impressed. She loves it, but her poops are inconsistent and she's not putting on weight no matter how much we feed her.

Iams for dog food. I usually cook a couple of eggs and add them in there if she diesnt eat it. At least 3 times a week we mix our table food with the iams (she loves indian food and it has never made her sick).

Pro Plan Savor Lamb & Rice. He seems to like that one the most and his weight stays right.

EVO Red Meat will put weight on the dog, drastically improve the coat, and you'll get some solid turds

You've definitely got to watch how much you feed it though, because it'll blow up quickly. Good food is more expensive, but you end up feeding them less.

We have tried alot of things with our 3 boerboels...settled on the Kirlands lamb and rice from Costco. Upper 20's for 40 lb bag. One has allergies and it does the best to minimize it. Also...i can easily manage their weights by the amount fed. Good stuff.

Purina pro plan sport. It's the only thing that will keep weight on my dogs much less make them gain weight.

I buy it on amazon and have subscribe and save. I haven't ran out of dog food in 3 years. It's the best thing ever. The price is near or is nearly the best.

Taste of the wild. I switch up the flavors everytime I buy a bag. Doesn't effect them in the slightest. They love it. Usually runs around $45/30# bag for my two hellions. One thing to keep in mind: the higher quality foods have less filler so they eat less and poop less and the same weight goes farther than your typical dog food. I always recommend grain free, and high protein is important for active, working or sporting dogs.
