Hi Doglet peeps

Cutting a long story short, my Setter has had a few rough year, meningitis, bloat, serious tummy bug. Anyway, she's all well and Setterish but is a skinny ribs! I like slim dogs but she's taking the Micky! So can you recommend me a good feed to help get weight on, without being too rich. She currently on Wainrights, which I like. She's very happy in herself and eats well, but if I feed more in volume, shell leave it. Sorry 'raw' peeps, that's a no go, tummy can't handle.
Thanks
 
Dog or you can't handle? Cos beef mince is great for weight gain. If it's the dog who has a dodgy tum, try a tiny bit then increase gradually.
 
I use pets at home's fishmongers its 10kg and costs 29.99 it lasts my two a fortnight. Although they weight somewhere between 35-40kg each! They also get tripe in their kongs twice a day
 
No worries :) Would the frozen blocks of washed tripe from Prize Choice be too much? It comes under the raw bracket but it is a good conditioner. Is it your tummy or hers :p

Ha if you saw what cleaned up the floor the other day, you wouldn't ask :p I've not tried tripe and didn't think off puppy food. TBH I'm more paranoid coz she had bloat than anything else, she always had a pretty tough tum, then bang, emergency run to the vet with next to no hope of survival.
Ps she s currently sitting on me while writing this, she says hi:D
