Currently I'm feeding her a raw food (meat, bones and organs) and de-hydrated raw food diet along with vitamins. How much weight a week should she be gaining during this period? What month in her life will see the greatest weight gain? How much should a female Vlcak weigh when she's 5-6 months old? I'd appreciate everyone's advice!
Well, a skiny dog is always better than a fat one. Have you tried not measuring the food - just giving the amount a young dog wants to eat? If he has a sense of "enought" (mine doesn't), this could be the answer I am speaking about raw meat diet in this case.
