she wont gain!
and she looks like a dang greyhound from the side!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! her tummy tucks too much for my liking and i already feed her 3 times a day 2 cups each.
Riley is at 43 pounds still and I have no clue if she is going through another ugly stage or what but she looks like a greyhound and I cant get her to bulk up! I add eggs and oil in her food but nothing has changed in size wise.
See what I am talking about?
any other suggestions of what I can give her?

She doesn't look bad, Riley is beautiful  Maybe try increasing her food she might be burning more than she's eating, is she really active?

yes, that is why I have started feeding her 3 times a day 2 cups every feeding, she is very active and even tho I increased the amount I still see nothing changing. she gets some belly and looks thick before bed but when we wake up in the morning and I feed her she looks like she does pictured above. a greyhound! lol

i think she is beautiful and the weight sounds fine for a 9 month old dog imo... 6 cups of food a day and not gaining any weight seems crazy to me, though! my dogs don't get nearly that much food a day and i gotta watch rudi cuz she will eat anything edible and probably gain a zillion pounds!

Dogs go through a skinny time during that age, don;t worry she will fill out in a few months.

I would try ****( nick name for Richard) Van Pattens Rolled food. There are three types lamb, turkey and beef. We have one dog here that we could put weight on and I started using this about a year ago. The dog looks great and maintains a good weight now with just an inch of this food everyday plus her regular 2 cups of dog food.
