how much protein can a dog tolerate? General Dog Discussions
i have a 7.5 year old bullmastiff x pitbull x rottweiler. he has lost alot of weight he went from 80 to 69 pounds because of diherea from contamination of his old food. Now that he is gettingf better and no more diherea i brought some grain free earthborn primitive which has 38% crude protein and 20% crude fat. He is a very energetic dog and gets mistaken for a puppy because he looks so young and is always bouncing around hes been to the vet twice this year and they found no health problems they even thoght he was around four or five years old and when I told them how old he was they ask me was I sure? because he looks so young. But I mainly want to know is that too much protein? and will it cause live damage? right away or does this kind of thing happens over time? I plan to switch to a food with less protein after this 15 pound bag is done. He dosent do alot of activity.Will this food be good to gain his weight back? and once he gains it back i think i might switch to taste of the wild.Here is a video of himhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4l_PJoritd4i meant to say liver damage
