since alot of people have gotten new puppies. i thought that maybe its a good idea to put up some information about under wieght puppies and ideas to make sure they are eating. 

there are a few recipes for satin balls but this seems to be the common one.

coccidia and guardia can cause alot of problems for puppies  and may need a little help getting back to a proper wieght please make sure your new puppy is checked for these parasites. typically guardia is not tested by vets cause its not as common in the US, if your puppy is imported it a really good idea to make sure your puppy does not have it. 

warning  because boerboels are a large breed its good to keep them on the lean side though so a fat puppy in many ways is just as bad as a really skinny puppy too much wieght puts alot of stress on growing joints.

"Hello Kim welcome and thanks for posting.  Sorry to hear you having trouble with your puppy.  First off have you taken her to the vet?  Do they know of the situation?  Have they taken a urine sample?  If your girl has a UTI…"

obsessive Water drinking

Our 12 week old Boerboel wants to drink water - she has had a urinary infection that we have been treating.. but this is crazy... she searches for mud puddles, rain, condensation... drinks until she is miserable and burping then lays around and pees... potty training is near impossible as she is more interested in water than life... ANY IDEAS? See More
