@rikumom: We changed our vet, and the new one concluded that he had a worming issue. And that was the case since after treatment he didnt have diarreah anymore We fed him raw food for one week and we slowly introduced again the food that the breeder recommended. He is now on puppy food, luckily we found ekuanuba food here in Albania, and we will feed him with ekuanuba from now on
What i am looking for is how visibly his hips protrude from his sides. There should be a noticeable indent in front of his hips. Here is a visual guide:
Telling "ideal" and "heavy" apart from a side view of a fluffy dog is very difficult. Overhead is much easier. He does look like he might be ~5lbs heavy but I don't know if its just the photos. You can tell better in person.
Ahhhhh I love the one where he's running with this tongue out. I cannot wait to take mine to the beach. Did he go into the water at all? Like past his knees?
@maru He usually dosent go inside water more than past his paws, but today he was motivated by a seagull which was flying around, so he went inside past his knees, he didnt go deeper, we have not yet seen him swimming.
@rikumom Yes for sure, as a puppy 8-9 weeks old he was almost grey with a small brownish tint. Then he became light brown. And now he has an orange-red colour. For sure the photos make him look like a really dark red because of additional saturation added by the camera.
I love how the red on his legs extend all the way down to the top of the foot. In comparison Meichan wears white stockings up to her elbow. Your breeder did well!

What did you end up feeding him?

btw, i LOVE those puppy photos of him a while back.
I dont know if he is overweight or not... Can somebody which is more experienced judge by the photos?
@poeticdragon can you please give me an opinion?
This is the best i have right now, since Tajo is with my girlfriend for the moment to an other city. I will ask her tomorrow to take a new photo.
Thank you very much for your reply.
Maybe this one can help?
