    Hi all.

    First off, thank you all for your advice with James' dreaded dew claw incident. I'm pleased to say that he's perked up loads and the quick is shrivelling away nicely.

    As I mentioned, he was off his food and I think he's lost some weight (only visually, we don't have any scales). He's decided that he'll only eat Aldi's £4.99 chicken working dog food. I read somewhere though that people don't think it puts weight on dogs and I'm just wondering what I could feed him additionally for a while to help put some weight back on him. Any ideas?

    Add some protein, like sardines, eggs, and meat (raw or cooked but if cooked remove bones).

    Glad his claw is healing up well :)
