    She looks well-muscled. I bet she is burning off all she eats. They should definately feed her a better quality kibble of course, and maybe 3 meals a day instead of one or two.

    When I adopted Sierra she was underweight and stayed that way for a few years. I free fed her for almost 2 years, but never gained weight.
    It wasn't until she was 4 or 5 years old that she started putting weight on.
    My vet said she was healthy and there wasn't anything to worry about, but I was SO tired of hearing "Is your dog sick? Why is she so skinny?"
    Grrrr.. that peeved me off to no end.

    Your friend could try free feeding for a while and/or add high quality puppy food to her diet.

    All the boxers (and some others) I meet at the dog park at thin, like in the picture. They run around the most and are so high energy.

    *Sigh* I should be so lucky.
