Try changing the dog food for older dogs. U can start them on senior food at the age of 5. Its good to start at that age cause they r middle aged, fully grown & the food is easier on the ir digestive systems & they will be about to get ALL the goods outta the food so they wont loose anything when they r old.
Its best preparing the dog for old age, when they r middle age.
Its the same for kids & adults too.
Drink lots of milk, it'll help ur bones when ur older & so on.
The vet told us RB Max's bones & muscles looked like a 2-3 year old dogs. RB Max was 9 yrs old. The vet said Max looked 5, only cause of the grey around the face. & like I said RB Max was 9 going on 10 in a few months.
Max was fed "Nutro Senior" since he was 5. MB Max was also never over weight. He was a skinny tooth pick & SUPER SUPER SUPER active. At 9 yrears of age, I still couldn't find a dog to out run, or out last him. Just look what he was doing!!

Please take no offence to this next part. But I honestly think its the food ur feeding him. That is the #1 worst food to feed ur dog. Its full of sugar & trash.
I know if u feed him a better Quality it'll make a big difference. Just look at the ingredances, if u don't see Chicken Meal (or what ever meat u want him to eat), & u see Chicken by-products, then ur dog isn't getting enough meat in his system. By-Product can be hair, skin, bones, feet, & other useless stuff. Rember dogs r Meat Eaters. Yes they will gnaw on bones & so on, but thats an extra. Meat needs to be the main diet.
Someone said there is a "Nutro Max" & its cheaper then "Nutro", so try some Nutro Max. Its a slightly lower Quality the Nutro, but Nutro is at the Top for meat & quality.
