I just thought he wasn't growing at the speed in which the growth chart was saying he should be at the age he is at.
Could you post a growth chart? I have never seen one but have often wished I knew of one.
It sounds like you are doing great with him!

Thank you Maisha! That is very nice to have. I have an almost 5-month-old GSD pup and I am always wondering if she is where she should be weight/size wise. According to this chart she is following along with the male size more than female, she in fact is just a bit over the male weight for her age. I guess that means she will be a big girl. That is fine. She is not overweight at all, appears lean, with a long body. Her vet says her weight is just right for her and that she has a perfect conformation (not American GSD).
I of coarse love hearing wonderful things about her. I already think she is awesome.

How big is he?
I usually give two tablespoons once a day, and I also use Probios as well.
After his stools become normal again, I would gradually increase meals by a couple of ounces at a time.

I'm going to weigh him today. He is 14 weeks old. (Wow, he is really growing up too fast) Anyway, his stool is back to normal but I didn't know if that would change when I started adding the yogurt.

14 weeks, I would start with half tablespoon a day for a few days then increase gradually.
