Daisy Mae's ideal weight should be 10 pounds. Her Mom and Dad are

to a 70 lb. Pitbull Terrier.
The vet put her on low fat and low calorie food. Her treats are stringbeans
She gets 1/4 cup of food for breakfast and 1/4 for supper.
She has lost 1 lb. in 6 mo.she now needs to lose 2 more pounds. It is quite
important for her to lose this weight as when she was 3 months old she had a
broken leg that needed orthopedic surgery, She had a plate and screws put into her leg, and then had it removed when the bones fused. Is there a way to lose weight faster or is it a slow proccess.
She has her 3 daily walks and plays with Ozzy. she does have suffient exercise.
Would appreciate any help.
One problem is the Pit. Daisy is th alpha and will take food out of his mouth.  |
If you aren't noticing any difference in her weight, and like you say she is getting a lot of exercise- then i think you need to cut back slightly on her food and see how that goes.
Also if the pit is taking the food out of her mouth- i think they should be fed separately, that could get dangerous fast.
Hey i see you are in Lakeland! We vacation every christmas in Davenport! Like a stone's throw away
