Unfortunately, we can't walk at my house. I live on a gravel road with no shoulder and I swear the Baja race takes a detour down our road the traffic is so fast. I try to take her outside to play ball, but we don't make it every day. I've even tried teaching her to walk on my treadmill but she'll only do that for treats so that seems counterproductive.
My mom has a shih tzu that is about Lucy's size and they eat exactly the same thing and Allie is perfect. She's also much less active than Lucy as Allie gets the zoomies about once a week for maybe three minutes and that's her exercise. That's why I think the EVO has more fat than Lucy needs. It also seems that the more we exercise and the more I watch what she eats the bigger and hungrier she gets. Poor girl.
Thanks for everyone responses and sorry this is so long.
