At Bernie's last checkup the vet said that Bernie needed to loose 2 pounds, so I have cut back on treats some. But I don't think there is any way he can loose 2 whole pounds. As long as I can get him to the point where I can feel his ribs, I think that he will be ok. Anyone else been told that their yorkie needed to loose weight?
Yeap!
Me.
Fido went for his checkup yesterday and the vet told me he had to loose weight, he is just muzzles on his feet but on his stumach and back, there is a bit of fat,but i walk at least 1 hour a day with him
I have to put him on some diet food for fat doggies, and go on a daily bikeride so he will loose weight.
