Has there been any change in there activity level? My alsation runs around like an absolute idiot when anyone is outside. We had work done on the house recently which went on for about 3 weeks. Due to the extra running around like an idiot, she lost a noticeable amount of weight over the 3 weeks and constantly seemed to be hungry. Shes returning to normal now though.

just because they were wormed, doesn't mean that they dont have them. I always wormed and flee dosed my dogs as directed but I Keep noticing them in their poo. When I Say it to the nurses in the vets they dont look surprised. I Dont think any dogs/cats are ever totally worm worm free.

Mine are wormed every 3 months or so never seen any sign of wormies in their poop. If it might be worms perhaps change to a different wormer.
My lot are hungrier now than a couple of weeks ago, I think because they feel the heat the weather was warmer and they weren't as hungry. Now with the cooler weather they are a little hungrier. Some dogs though are gluttons anyway and will eat at any oppertunity.

The packet instructions are just a guide the amount all depends on how active the dogs are as well.

Dont forget winter is on the way and as the weather changes, their instincts tell them to start putting on as many layers as fat as possible, especially with the way our weather has been for the past few years.
