I do add frozen thawed green beans to her evening meal and that has helped. She is not a big playing dog but she will run from me if I chase her so we run through the house playing everyday and that has helped, she is still around 61/2lbs and I cant seem to get that last pound off of her. I can't cut her food back anymore because she is like your little one licking the bowl after she eats like she is starving. I also only give veggies for treats. |
Well michelle, I hope you, like me, can learn from these pro's that we have hear. Since Madison is only 18mos old and Lexie my skinny maltese is 6yr old, I'm having to learn for Madison's sake what I've never had to concern myself with Lexie. But I'm a loving mom and will do right for Madison.
