sidklansnala Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 My 15 week old is starting to look a little slender lately, she eats well,diamonds natural lamb n rice for puppies and we feed raw chicken fruit n veggies too. She just seems kinda long n slender is this what is called the awkward faze? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormy Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 They go through this they have growth spurts where they get taller but don't fill out don't worry to much about it as they fill out when they reach about a year old if you are worried you could up the food slightly but tbh most go through the lanky stage!

HuskyMom09 Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 Don't worry too much, they go through many of these awkward phases. Some lines don't mature fully until they are 2+ years old so don't fret yours will get there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormy Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 It's normal shadow actually took till after a year and a half to start filling out properly Skye is developing at quite a nice rate but I found out raw stops them growing far to fast so they don't get as much of a lanky stage as on dry food Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julieanne Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 There's a good chance her ears and legs will also grow quickly, though a well bred husky normally grows into their body. If her parents aren't lanky then she probably will grow into better proportions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
