Default Healthy weight?
So lately my pup has been eating alot less then usual. =/ he weighs 30.2lbs at 17weeks. he seems healthy but my dad was saying he looks skinny. Idk what a good weight would be for him but its not like you can feel his ribs or his hips are showing. He's got a thick chest/back and when it gets to his waist it slenders down a little bit but not much. should i be worried tht he isnt eating as much? Its my first pitbull so im trying to learn about their habbits.

How about a picture?

How is his energy level and is he acting lethargic?

I dont have any of him standing up but ill take a few pics once i get home. I feel his energy levels are good. Hes a hyper pup and always ready to go out for a walk or play with the tennis ball.

You should be able to feel his ribs with very little pressure, most dogs you should be able to see the outline of the last couple ribs, puppies go from fat to thin as they grow and you adjust food though. You don't want a fat puppy. Pic of him standing from the side and from above would be helpful.
