How did I miss this thread???
Anyway I am owned by a 2 and a half year old male DDB - he has ALWAYS been a fussy eater - hes now been eating tripe for about 6 months and is gaining weight nicely - I always feed it raw and sometimes when we go to a friends house who gets full bellies to mince herself we have given him slices of the stuff - its like his instincts kick in and he rips it apart and gobbles it down - its the best stuff in my eyes - I also feed cooked pasta and boiled eggs and this has helped him to gain a little weight too - plus he has kidneys - hearts etc etc - his eating is SO much better now

do you think thats what i might be donig wrong with my old bully then mate!?? As i do boxing and go running at 7am every morning ,thats when i run my dog ,its about 2miles everday without fail ,do think thats to much for a dog that age !? is this the reason why hes loosing so much weight ????

If hes still enjoying his runs then let him carry on - if there is nothing medical that is wrong then the runs will do him good and keep him fit - keep his heart healthy. Maybe feed him a touch more to compensate the weight loss - it could be that the running is burning off a little too much weight than it used to. When do you feed him? morning afternoon, night??? Try feeding him an extra meal during the day - just a small one ..... Nice to see an oldie still fit as a fiddle
Just re read what you originally typed - will he not eat anything mixed in with his dry food? Have you tried a different brand?

i have got him back on tripe again now ,he was on it 3yrs ago but i stoped feeding it as it does smell abit ! i have allways fed him dryed food even in with the tripe and thats what i am trying again now ! he has allways liked tripe and it makes him wanna eat so hopefully it will help the old boy put some chubb on! hes a lovely old boy and i couldent part company with him for no money i feed my dogs the best dog food you can get wellbeloved i think its called !??

Tripe is brill - yep it smells a bit but you get used to it LOL
He should gain a bit of weight and I am happy he likes it - just put a peg on ya nose when you dish it up LOL
Hmmmm I am not keen on James Welbeloved as such but if yours like it then keep them on it, have you looked at Arden Grange or Royal Canin? They are both the best foods for my dogs in my opinion....have a look at the ingredients on your food bag and then have a look online at other foods....they may be better and more or less the same price....although not sure how much Wellbeloved is per sack.......I buy from wholesalers so mines cheaper than the pet shops....some swear by James Wellbeloved...so if yours are doing well on it then stick to it......

i think its about £42 a bag!

Arden grange I get for £26 and RC I can get for about £24.....I wouldnt buy from pet shops anymore - just knowing what they are making per bag!!!! I go and buy bulk from wholesalers - but even if I got 1 bag I am saving a fortune ( well I am not really - cos I buy them all toys everytime I go too ) LOL

where do you find these dog food wholesalers ???
