Andy, its the other way around... the kibble goes through like the clappers coz theres very little nutrition in it, thats why a pup on kibble will poop more often, RAW goes through slower coz the dogs body is getting every bit of nutirtion it can out of it.

AniNi3, if you dont like the idea of feeding raw their are things you can give him to help build him up which are less fussy than a whole raw diet, a raw egg shell and all in his kibble is fine good source of calcium. A tin of sardines or other fish in sunflower oil can also be given as a snack in between feeds the fish oils are really good to help put on a bit of extra weight and the omega 3 helps make their coats shine. Small amounts of peanut butter in a kong toy will help boost his calorie intake and keep him entertained for ages as well!! And as mentioned 2-3 raw on the bone chicken wings or 1-2 chicken thighs are cheap to pick up from the butchers or in asdas cheap meat section and help to beaf up an under weight pup (just never give cooked bones of any kind as the cooking makes them brittle).

Hope thats helped! :D

Oh, lol really my night for being double dumbass. . . lol biggrin.gif

still the theory is sound even if I got it the wrong way round. . .thanks for the correction smile.gif
