Question
my male boxer is about 1 year old and is only 32 pounds. he doesn't eat sometimes but he is very active. should i be concerned and what should i do..?
)
Yes, be very concerned!
An adult (1 year old) male should weigh 60-80 pounds; an adult female 50-65 pounds.
He might have a thyroid disorder, worms, parasites, a gastric problem, digestion problems, all sort of issues.
GET HIM TO A VET IMMEDIATELY!
This is life threatening!
