Had Blue at the vets this week for an unrelated reason and got ticked off because 'he's chunkier than I like to see a young dog'. He weighs 14.95kgs and is 10 months old, so I imagine still growing, albeit slowly? I said, 'he's got a waist though'. Vet rather snootily responded with 'I think you're being a bit optimistic there!'
He looks perfect to me
He
has a waist, his tummy is nicely tucked up, and he is compact in shape, stands square to the floor, but is very sturdy (in a muscular way), which I think is appropriate according to the breed standard?. (He's a Show type, by the way.)
I certainly don't feel I overfeed him; 200g Natural instinct morning & night, a Bonio at bedtime, and minimal treats.
