So I'd have to say your dogs weight is not outside of bounds but I did see a couple of pics that I thought, hmmmm that dog needs more exercise. Me too. I didn't faint and call her pickle-shaped, but I'd want her a tad slimmer. See that side view? That's where I see not quite enough of a tuck-up just behind the ribcage. Not awful! But it's so much easier to keep the dreaded bullet-shape away than to fix it once you have it.

Otherwise she gets all schizo. Yours is probably a little lower energy,my dog would probably be biting me if she only got fourty five minutes for too many days at a stretch, but a little more would definitely help. I've never had a lower energy dog. It must be nice!

Right now she eats totw fish. And i throw in some sardines occasionally for along with some vitamins. Lately though she does not eat as much. She is 85lbs now and stocky (sire is stocky) (dam is tall and much skinnier). Otherwise she is very healthy. She's self-regulating her weight. Smart puppy.

And my work hours dont permit me to be with her all the time. I am gonna start excersing her more now that my work schedule permits it. And i appreciate all your input too. http://s1087.photobucket.com/albums/j480/Angela_Noirfalise/?action=view&current=007.jpg
