Thank you. He may need more exercise. When the weather is warm, he gets a walk of 1/2 mile to a mile per day. He is a muscular little doggie. When he was a baby, he went on a two mile dog/owner run, where he was a big hit (we rested off and on). He loves to run with me (him on a leash) to the point that when he is on a leash he thinks we are going for a run instead of a walk. With the advent of cold weather, he is not as active, but I don't think lack of activity is causing his weight problem. My vet thinks I should be able to feel his ribs.
