How long will it take for my dog to gain weight?

It might take longer than two weeks to see the results. She may have hit a plateau, which often happens when someone formerly starving starts eating a lot again. You don't want to stuff her too much, though, because that could make her sick. Gaining the weight back gradually is better.

Also, she's one year old. Is she still growing, like getting taller and bigger? A lot of adolescent animals don't fully fill out until they're adults.

Please keep checking up with the vet, who can provide you with a better understanding of how much she should be given and when she's in a healthy weight range.

Healthy dogs will eat if they're fed properly, none have yet starved themselves on purpose, nor are any picky except if their owners make them that way. Can food has very little nutritional value as it's 85% water.

She (beginning at one year old) should be fed a diet that is complete/balanced specifically formulated for canines, on a set schedule, twice daily, am/pm, a total daily amount according to body/condition/activity, split into those two meals, adjusting accordingly as need depending on her activity, lean is healthier, as well as easier on her growing joints and her heart. Perhaps she isn't burning off what you're feeding, therefore she may not need that much food it may also vary according to her individual metabolism.

Has you vet stated she is underweight or is this just your perception? Get a second opinion from another vet if you wish.

Tinned food is 80% MOISTURE and won't help put on weight. Although bigger breeds do take time to 'body up', to be as thin as you are suggesting wouldn't be just that. I think you need to find a better complete food, and feed her the same 3 times a day - breakfast, lunch and the third meal around 5 pm. And add things like scramabled egg, cottage cheese in moderation, to the mix. I hope your vet has done a full blood-work up. Being reluctant to eat alone would have me worried, in a puppy.

Huskies can be finicky eaters, and often eat less and are more efficient with food, than many other dog breeds of similar size. You should have turned to a breed mentor, if your breeder was not someone knowledgeable and helpful, concerning this matter. Often, people need breed specialists, rather than just their vet, to help them on a breed specific issue, especially concerning nutrition (when a medical problem is ruled out).

No thin or emaciated dog should be expected to gain more than two pounds per week. Your dog is like a CONCENTRATION CAMP VICTIM (from the Holocaust). Your dog has a shrunken stomach size & even more limited appetite, than normal. Eating large meals is virtually impossible & could even make the dog sick. Several small meals per day, work better than only two meals per day.

You will have to follow your DIET plan & weigh in at the vet's office as suggested; either per week, bi-weekly, or monthly but again..... do NOT expect more than 2 lbs of weight gain per week.

In that we DO NOT KNOW how many calories she WAS eating, versus how many calories she is NOW eating, nobody can answer your question.

She may have a problem with digesting & processing food & may need some digestive enzymes.

Here is some information on digestive enzymes for dogs. Ask Vet if this is a possibility.

Boiled hamburger & rice or boiled chicken & rice is a mainstay at any pound, shelter or rescue. I have seem emaciated dogs get back on their feet & gain weight while eating this stuff. I have seen proof of this. Substitute this for the cans of dog food. It is very digestible & easy on the dogs system.
