adding protein will not make your dog's hair grow. your dog's coat is the coat. you cannot make it longer, all you can do is feed a high quality premuim food and the coat should be shiny with natural oils. if you think there is something medically wrong talk to your vet.

All hair and nails contain a fibrous protein called keratin.
If your dog's hair is thinning, he may have a skin disorder. See your vet for a proper diagnosis.

There are supplements to help with coat (more with quality than quantity), but it is mostly genetic. Unless you got the pup from a show breeder, the breeder probably paid little attention to things like coat.

best thing for a shiny coat is raw eggs, or cottage cheese.or try rinseing its hair in beer it works for people.or even buttermilk.
