This is my first post and first of all would like to say hello to all....
Now on to the subject at hand.
My young man{scout} is an approx 5-6 yr old black cocker mix whos usual weight is around 19 lbs. He was inbetween haircuts so several weeks ago i did some trimming on my own and noticed weight loss.
Then 2 weeks ago i took him to the vet to see what was up,she suggested we do a CBC[complete blood count]which all levels turned out normal.
His weight was 16.9 btw.
I have been giving him a mix of dry/wet food as well as boiled chicken/rice which he seems to prefer to pick out.
He was a pound rescue and has always had anxiety issues and picky eater issues and around 12 weeks ago i did rescue another dog[stray]whose presence in the house im betting has something to do with this.
So i guess this is possible for this to be a mental isssue instead of a physical health issue?
Thank you....
