Getting a dog to lose weight is not all that difficult. It's the same principle for them as it is for us. Feed him three tiny meals per day not exceeding what his allowable intake is per day as stated on the bag. Feed adult not puppy formula. Next, stop all the treats. You didn't say what kind of treats you feed, but 6 sounds like quite a bit. For snacks, give some carrots or a few tiny bits of peeled apple. Beef up the walking. Walk about 40 minutes a day. Find a puppy play-date or start one of your own. Good luck.
