My skinny French Mastiff puppy eats poop. What should I feed her?

Question

My female 5 months old French mastiff weighs near 16 kgs. But even though she is very active she looks very skinny and copraphagous too. I give her three meals a day which comprises of dalia (twice), soybean, pumpkin, salt ,turmeric, pedigree curd and chapati(thrice). Since it's very warm here I give chicken very rarely. Please tell me what I shd be doing to get rid of her copraphagous behavior. Pet's info: Dog | French Mastiff | Female | unspayed | 6 months and 5 days old | 16 lbs

Without pictures it is impossible to assess her body condition score but I would recommend all giant breed pups be fed on a puppy kibble formulated specifically for large/giant breeds until at least 18months to ensure she is receiving all of the minerals and nutrition in the correct balance for optimal development. It is possible she is deficient in minerals, vitamins or calories causing her to scavenge
