Ideas for weight gain

[Lena]

Hi Susan,

What a great question. I have found the best plan for weight gain in dogs with cancer is -Cod liver oil or fish oil (I prefer Nordic Naturals)I use 2-3 times recommended dose if they can tolerate it

-sweet potato or pumpkin (I’m fine with those for animals with cancer)

-1-2 eggs a day for the average sized dog.

There are also some herbals but they tend to be very individual.

I have found this really helps. I hope it puts some weight on Oscar:-)

best wishes,

Lena

Thanks very much! I will try to increase the fish oil during his mid-day snack. He tolerates it fine. I’ll add the sweet potato and use eggs more regularly (I have used recently but more as a special snack than a regular thing). Thanks again.
