Treatment & Preventative Meds / Re: Should I???

I would go with the breed standards- and a new vet. Any vet should be happy to see you, spend a good amount of time examining your baby, and perform a thorough examination. All the good vets that I've gone to have put their hands all over our animals to check their weight, muscle condition, etc. as a quick once-over part of the exam.
But, the breed standards aren't always completely correct- not every dog matches up where they should. So what you have to consider is if she's a good weight for her frame and her body. If you can easily feel her ribs, good. If they're drastically jutting out, not so good.
But what I'm really thinking, is that I'm not a big fan of your vet.
