This just happened to me yesterday. My friend was dog sitting and the dog was obviously overweight. It was a large dog, but I rubbed and played with her, I could not feel that slight indentation that you're supposed to feel near the ribs and pelvis. I told my friend "Lady" was pudgy and needed a diet. It was in a jokingly fashinton but I said I'm serious.
Being that this wasn't my friends dog, he said the dogs mom feeds it table food, plus kibble, plus canned food. All in one bowl, multiple times a day. So if her bowl is empty it gets filled up no matter if she ate a full meal that day.
