Does anyone have any good suggestions to fatten a juvenile water dragon up? Thanks!

if i had a scrawny looking wd, i would just offer as many gut loaded insects, crickets, mealworms, etc. that it wants, also try fresh veggies, i have never had any luck with veggies, but its worth a try.do try and remove uneaten materials/insects,as they could stress and annoy your little buddies,hope this helps, keelsey

does canned dogfood help? I've heard this helps but i'm not sure. If it does, any particular things i should look for or not look for?

I gave them waxworms extra when they needed to be a little fatter. They are not very nutricious so a multi should be given also.
My 3 WD are now about 23 inches long and they started to eat veggies only 2 months ago. Now they love it, even they dried grass (I don't know they english name for it) from my tortoise they like
