    He's so handsome.

    Honestly, I find nothing wrong with a dog a little on the skinny side. It's better than being a little on the chunky side!

    I love seeing lean, fit dogs! Though I may be biased, since I apparently have the worlds skinniest GSD [ LOL ]

    Loved the pictures. He's a very handsome boy.

    Hello Eli! You always look so handsome. Your black & white fur-suit looks very formal, like your heading out for a night on the town!

    I agree with you. A few more lbs in the hips and back legs. Eli is a
    handsome pup. How old is he ?

    p.s. You have a beautiful yard for a dog.

    Aww he's one handsome pup!
    Glad someone else commented on the weight.. I was wondering as well.
    I think some ribs is ok, like the last few before the waist.
    But not the spine... But I understand.
    Our Eli was a thin one when we got him.

    Funny thing is.. we call him 'Fat Head' too.

    I have always been in love with that boy of yours. He is an amazing looking dog.
    Man, if he used that face he has in the 2nd picture around here, he would be able to get away with just about anything! =D

    What a kissable face. I have to agree with some of the others. I would like to see an extra couple of pounds on him if he were mine. When I brought Ripley home from the shelter he looked like that and the girls there had written "thin" on his paperwork. He was 11 lbs. and now is 14 lbs. and just perfect.

    He's one of my favorites on Pet Talk, I always love seeing him. I am the same way with Finn that you are with Eli, we keep him fit and lean, and people always say he's too skinny. On occasion, they're right, if he's working really hard without an increase in his food. But, usually it's just because they're using to seeing thick labs. We have to watch Finn, though, too, to keep him at the right weight.

    Eli, I you!
