How old is he?
If he has a "pot belly" and is panting often, you might need to think about Cushing's Disease - or at least consider the other symptoms you might see w/ it to make sure he doesn't have it. So, are there any other symptoms? Excessive drinking/peeing? Fur loss? Skin/ear infections?

Just something to consider as weight redistribution and panting are flags for Cushing's.

Btw, does he eat veg and do okay on it? If so, you could feed veg like green beans or something to help him feel more full.
