my 7 year old beagle male dog seems to be constantly hungry and can eat a lot if given a chance. what could be the reason?
Dr. Kaveri Giriraddi

Archna
Feeding meals 2 times. 100 gm.chicken, brown rice , pumpkin,beans, carrot. Altogether about 350 gm each meal. Then inbetween a piece of whole wheat bread, few watermelon pieces
Dr. Kaveri Giriraddi
you should add extra corbohydrates content in his diet, things like rice, chapathi ,vegetables

Archna
Yes, these are already there
Dr. Kaveri Giriraddi
You should increase the carbohydrate content in food, like increasing chapati and quantity of rice
Dr. Kaveri Giriraddi
If you can tell me what is your dog’s weight i can let you know approximately how much carbohydrate increment is needed

Archna
He is 17 kg
Dr. Kaveri Giriraddi
This is perfect weight for his age, however you should increase the quantity to aprox 600gm each meal
