Lol well wet he looks like a smooth body condition wise I just figured no one wanted to see a picture of a wet noodle :-p ha ha ha! I'll put a few oz back on him but I don't think he needs many!

Yes Sarah but see how he now has some longer hair all along the topline? that is new! yay! hahaha.
I just can't tell w/ him, b'c the fur on his ribcage is still puppy fur and sticks out from his body, wet he looks fine but I agree he looks a wee bit thin...so guess I'll get him to like 4 lb 4 oz and go from there.

You shouldn't be able to feel each and every rib Kristi. That's too thin. If his sides feel like a washboard, he's too skinny.
Not sure exactly why, but most dogs I've seen in the ring are about 10% too heavy. Perhaps the handlers think it makes them look cobbier/shorter. But I have rarely seen one in what I would consider ideal body condition being shown. So yeah, I'd put some weight on him... when you get out to the shows again, he will really stand out there as being too thin.
