Hi Laurie, eggs help make muscle, it’s about 3 eggs a week, carbs will help gain weight like boiled potatoes, sweet potatoes & add some cooked green veggies… Do you feed kibble?? kibble helps gain weight, make sure you look at the Kcals/per cup, its normally on the kibble site under Feeding Guide.. Look for a kibble that’s 370Kcals/per cup & over…
Here’s a calculator to work out how many calories he should be eating a day…. also feed 3 meals a day divide into 3 smaller meals a day, this way his meals aren’t tooo big (Bloat)
to eat all at once.. I feed Taste Of The Wild Sierra Mountain Roasted Lamb, I just looked in the TOTW booklet at their High Prairie Canine Formula Roasted Bison & Roasted Venison Grain Free is 370kcals per cup & a dog that weights 125lbs-150lbs should eat 5 – 5 3/4 cups a day….if after feeding the 5 & 3/4 cups kibble a day & he hasn’t gained any weight in 2 weeks I’d see a vet…. you can add some fresh whole foods with the kibble as a topper….
