Head and bone structure is determined by his genetics and cannot be adjusted. Be very careful not to allow him to become overweight or obese whilst growing as this increases the risk of bone and joint growth problems such as hip dysplasia and puppies, especially large and giant breeds should be kept lean until at least 15months of age
