Thanks for pointing that out, Nancy -- I agree as well! That is a much different view than I saw in her album. It is also another good reason that I should rad all the way through before posting. I had done that the first time when I replied in August, but then I just looked in the album when the thread was bumped to the top of the list this month. Well, since I just suggested if she really did not think they were overweight, maybe see another vet, I guess that was not too bad. Glad I at least listed both options.

I agree, Coco's form, although still cute as a button, is that of an overweight dog and since the term "obese" comes in to play at that certain percentage (can't remember what it is offhand), then I bet the vet is right on with his dx. Hard to hear that about our "kids" but better to help them lose a little and live a lot longer.
