try adding a few cubes of liver to his food, lots of nutrients including iron. And try to exercise him regularly.

Exercise is the only thing that will build a dogs muscle. If you feed him more than he needs he'll just get fat. And don't overdo it too fast because you'll put too much strain on his joints.
Attaching a weight to his collar is a bad idea. You should never let your dog pull on the lead either; a pad or callous will build up over his windpipe where he pulls, and will interfere with his airway. Eventually that will cause heart disease. Short nosed breeds have enough trouble breathing without adding to the stress.
He's a pet dog, so good quality dog food is all he needs, along with enough exercise. A good long walk every day, a run off the lead, and a couple of games chasing a ball or frisbee will keep any dog in good health. They're not body builders and putting on too much muscle is not good for them long term.

First be sure you're feeding him a good food,nothing cheap.Eggs are great for a dogs muscles;they're full of protein,amino acids,and fatty acids so they're good for his skin and coat as well.Try giving him a cooked egg and a raw egg yolk three or four times a week.Also add some raw beef and beef liver two or three times a week.Yogurt is good;fish;milk if he can tolerate it.Add a good dog vitamin and make sure he gets plenty of vigorous exercise(swimming is good).If he doesn't start to put on some muscle,then you should have him seen by a vet.He's young;he really should already have fairly good muscles,but some dogs do mature later than others and don't reach their full bulk until they're two or three.

Try giving him small amounts of protein foods like chicken or livers. If you give him too much, it may upset his stomach. Also, something you may want to do is get you a long piece of nylon rope (about 2 feet longer than your dog from his collar to his rump) and attach it to something that has some weight to it like a cement block. While you are outside playing with him, the extra weight will build up his muscles while he is getting exercise. Don't do this for too long a period of time, maybe 5-10 minutes starting out. Also, keep an eye on him that he doesn't get tangled up, maybe run with him back and forth. My husband did this with his bulldog mix and Sam was one stout dog!

First of all, if you are feeding a commercial diet like Iams, Science Diet, Eukanuba, Ol' Roy, Purina, etc. STOP! These foods are full of fillers like corn, wheat, or rice.
To build muscle you need to increase PROTEIN. You can put your dog on a BARF (Bones And Raw Food) diet, or switch a super premium dog food that has NO GRAIN. Local pet stores...not PetCO ro Petsmart, carry these better dog foods. Speak with the store manager about your dog's needs and your desired outcome on his condition. Once you have selected the best food for your dog, try increasing his exercise and perhaps get him into cart or weight pulling. Bully dogs do great in these games.

Hi,

I am a Dhaxem animal healer, and can help your doggy, even at distance. Your question would otherwise be too general for anyone to answer it appropriately. In different cases the reason for this praticular problem would be a different one.

It appears to me that yout Staffy has a problem with his metabolism. That means that his body cannot convert very well the nutrients he receives into own body mass. He would need a number of remedies to correct this, and if you go ahead, I would suggest Solgar as the make. You can order over the internet. Your doggy needs this:

Bromelain 500mg tablets - Please give 3 tablets before a meal, but feed twice a day. Give the tablets only with one of these two meals.

In order to get good success, it is further important that you give your doggy good quality proteins. To improve possible commercial diets, he would greatly benefit from lean lamb 3 times a week, best raw, but start adding small bits to his usual food. Do not change over suddenly.

Please do the above for 3 weeks, and then add:

DLPA 500 mg vegetable capsule twice a week before meals

Please get in touch for maintenance after further 3 weeks, (6 weeks from now) I will be glad to help you further.

Best of luck.

Please, stroke your dog, for me.
