I know it is so tough to put them on a diet. My Ted too is on a diet. I used to give him a 1/2 cup twice a day also of Natural Balance dry food. We've recently switched to Taste of the Wild, and he now only gets 1/4 cup and a couple pieces of veggie twice a day, and I do see a difference. His tummy will shrink; so hang in there until he gets used to his smaller amount. Apparently a cup is way too much for these little guys per day. Treats have also been cut down to two of the tiny Mother Hubbard buiscuits per day. Good luck. Soon our babies will be ready to sport their new summer bods. On the brighter side, the vet said Ted's extra weight was a good thing when he had to have a mass tumor removed from his nose because he wasn't so fragile. xo |
