Dangers of

Obesity

Regardless of the size of breed,

you must guard against letting

your dog become overweight.

D

ogs are great con artists and will

look at you with melting eyes as if to

say: “I haven’t eaten for days...” Do

not fall for this ruse; it does not take many

extra treats before a dog starts to pile on

the pounds. An overweight dog is

lethargic

and will not enjoy his exercise; he is prone

to a range of health problems and his life

expectancy is considerably shortened. It is

your duty to keep your dog fit and lean so he

can enjoy life to the full.
