Tony is a good looking pup! Most dogs with this breed will have a large, deep chest and a more narrow waist. You should also be able to see the last rib when they turn. Some dogs do naturally run more thin. If you are seeing more than the last rib, try increasing the food intake or changing to food to a higher calorie diet (you can find information about the calories on the side of the package). I hope this is helpful and please feel free to post any additional questions.
