Glad to hear the positive news. If the vet recommends that she lose a little weight, please follow the recommendation. Kirby had to lose weight for her knees. I know it's hard with those puppy dog eyes begging you for all sorts of things but it's the best thing for her. Try to get her to be more active inside the house if necessary. Sometimes Kirby and I walk laps in the house especially now because it gets dark earlier. We try to get her moving to burn calories. I guess it's just like humans. Cutting back on calories will only works if we are physically active in some manner. I use a measuring cup to measure the amount of kibble to feed Kirby daily. You may want to ask your vet how much kibble to feed her daily. Since my vet's recommendation , Kirby has not gained a pound. It's been going on 2 years now. I also feed healthy snacks like raw carrots,and sweet potatoes. Again, I am so happy to hear that your furbaby will be fine. |
