My 11month old dog has never really been amassive eater but she seems to be slowly eating less and less. She is upto date on injections and worming.

she is a Collie X GSD X Staffie X Lab....... a total mix i know :D

She is still very active and a happy dog so no change there.

She used to eat 900g of food a day but now its down to about 150g-200g is this normal as she may be stopping growing?

Many Thanks Everyone

her weight is still fine she isnt a chunky dog anyway she is quite a slim build but no bones sticking out and still a good 'coverage' everywhere.

If she is maintaining her body weight I wouldn't worry, if she is dropping I would look to change her diet to something she will eat. What is she currently on? 900g/day sounds a lot to me.

It sounds as though she is regulating her own weight pretty well! Providing she is healthy, active and keeping a constant weight, I wouldn't worry. Some dogs just don't have the drive to eat that others do and will simply eat what they need.
