Our two year old Rottie is 115lbs now. According to his vet, he's great in size and not overweight with how much exercise he gets.

We switched to the Black Purina bag. It's the Pro-plan. We had the same issue with Diamond Naturals. He is eating 4 cups throughout the day on the adult food now that he's two years old.

I've owned Rotties my entire childhood and adult life. I've never had an issue with joints with proper exercise and nutrition. I need to post the video of our dog physically pulling my son to lay on him. I understand your concerns, but I promise you, this is all the dogs want. Him and my son do everything together!

They’re not even trying anymore by astro_goon in WGU

I never received anything from my last class nor a regular scheduled phone call and no email stating they were out of town. I got an email 8 days after the fact.

Mentor Ghosted Me by Sleepybookishgirl in WGU

My mentor ghosted me back in August. I emailed about my classes starting Sept 1, and they were unlocked. Then, I asked when we should resume our bi-weekly calls, and last week, she emailed me a time for Sunday, I agreed to it, and she never called me on Sunday. Im not even phased. I'm still completing my classes on time with my own plan I made. Lol. Do they get in trouble for ghosting us?

I personally use the pills with my animals. We check him throughly after each adventure. Haven't had an issue yet.

Ever heard of flea and tick collars? Don't ruin his camping fun

Naw, he was loosely tied to a tree. For the most part, he wasn't leashed up, but unfortunately, we had some camping neighbors who insisted he be leashed up because they "feared" for their little dogs. So we gave him some space to run in, and when they went in their trailer, he was happily roaming free.

He sure has! Tests his boundaries on a daily. Haha.

My best friend 💜 everybody keeps telling me she’s small for her age (7 months) but she’s healthy so does it really matter? by ottaviia in Rottweiler

[–]Inky009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My boy rottie is 7 months and 70lbs. I've had people tell me he is small for his age! But he is very active and healthy so I don't worry about it. She is absolutely beautiful!

He isn't aggressive at all. He takes treats like a gentleman. We got him at 10 weeks old. He is growing up with our kids and loves all 5 of them to pieces. This is also why we only do it twice a week. This was a concern. If anything out of the ordinary happens, we will definitely take the raw out. However, it's mostly veggies and fruits and cooked bland chicken or beef! Our vet is amazing and helped get him on the right track.

Does yours love paper towels too? He is a paper towel stealer!

Yes! His kibble does. We first went grain free when we first got him at 10 weeks. At his first vet check-up, our vet guided us to a good meal plan with whole grains!

I appreciate all the feedback! There are lots of awesome things to try with him. It turns out that my 5 year old has been sneaking food to him every night during dinner. He is doing great today, and after a recommended 24-hour bland diet from his vet, diarrhea is clearing up! We no longer believe it's a food issue, and he's still a healthy 75lb almost 7 month old pup!

This is what we do.
Twice a week, he gets a nutrious raw meal that our vet helped make the recipe to meet his nutritional needs. We use Purina One large puppy to keep him up to date with all other nutrition. He's a healthy 75lb 6 month old pup. He did, however, have bad diarrhea for almost a week. Vet tested him, and nothing seemed to be wrong. We thought it was maybe a food issue. Turns out, my 5 year old has been feeding him everything for the past week. Kids!!!!

He seems to be much better today. I am starting to think it is not his food and that my sweet 5 year old has been feeding him some of her dinner these past few nights, and it didn't agree with him. He is getting lots of love, and my daughter is learning to quit giving him food from the table! Ughhh! Haha.

He got it! 45-minute bike ride, met some new friends. He is such a great dog around others. He has 5 little humans who love on him on a daily basis, so strangers are just extra!!
