Are you sure she's lost weight? Have you weighed her? I ask because if you feed them right most of them start to grow really lanky and tall (look like they're getting skinny) until they are about 1-1 1/2 years old. After that they start filling out.

I have a 10 month old walker, and she is kinda skinny looking, you can see her ribs and looks boney. It's seems she's still getting taller. I been feeding her more than my others to try to get some meat on her bones, but it just ain't helping only making her more hyper. You think she just hasn't filled out yet?

As long as she's otherwise healthy she's probably just still growing and not filled out yet. Some take longer, some take less time. I'd rather have one fill out later than before their skeletons are able to handle the extra weight.

i have the same problem with one of my hounds a walker that just turned a yr old he's taller than my 3 yr old hound but half the weight. He eats more or just as much as the other hound and is always running around and wagging his tail looks happy, he broke out of his pen last night and the dog catcher called and told me he had reports of him looking malnourished, it has me worried, said he was going to do a follow up in a few weeks, what do yall suggest if the problem is that he hasnt filled out.
