My mom told me my dog is too skinny. Is she actually that thin?

My mom told me my dog is too skinny. Is she actually that thin? I need an outside perspective.

If you are an American: for sure. Too thin
>>
>>2360104
I think your mom is right

Thanks guys. We've been more active lately and I didn't increase her food, so she must have lost weight from that. I feel bad for not noticing.

General rule:
-if you run your fingers along its spine and the bones feel too pointy, as if there was no fat between the skin and the bone: too thin
-if the hip is too prominent: too thin
-if you can see more than 2-3 ribs clearly: too thin
Your doggo looks fine, anon. Of course it'd be best if you weight her and stuff

I'd say she's actually about right- see picture attached. Quite nice to see a dog about the right weight rather than morbidly obese.

Looks ok to me. She's cute :)

I took a better picture

>>2360116
I'll save that picture and show my mom
>>

She looks good! No protruding bones as far as I can tell.
>>
>>2360125
She looks healthy! You can tell she's lean from actually exercising and not starvation

Cute dog OP

She looks healthy to me. Good muscle tone.

Your dog is perfect. People are so used to seeing fat things they don't know normal.
>>
>>2360104
Looks fine to me. Weight it then weigh again every 2 days. That will let you know if anything odd is going on.
>>
looks good

>t. fit teenage min pin owner who gets told he's too thin all the time by fat dog owners. vets love him though, i guess he's pretty rare
>>
Dog weights are kinda hard to judge by eyeballing if you don't know the breed. Some dogs just look skinny (greyhounds etc)

My Min Pin is constantly accused of being too skinny but she's just right for her.
My Chihuahua/Pom cross is a stocky little fluff ball who is accused of being chubby when she's just stocky/square set.
