Wellness makes a Healthy Weight. It has weight loss and maintenance recommendations on the bag.
I am trying to get weight off of Cozy (needs to loss 6 pounds) and Lucy (should loss 2.5 pounds), too. They should be 10 and 7 pounds respectfully. They packed on the weight mostly when Zoey was sick. They are not tolerating their diets well 1/4 cup of food daily including all treats except a few green beans- They cry and stand by where the doggie treats are. They will walk if you make them but start to give you dirty looks after a few minutes. I upped their excerise from 2.5 miles to 5 miles daily- Same as Buddy, my energetic Golden, and Roxy- Broken up into 2.5 in the AM and 2.5 in the PM. Cozy and Lucy are beat- They look for food and sleep at home- No play from them. Cozy seems like she lost some weight- Looks thinner but Lucy has not lost anything. They get weighted in a few weeks.
Roxy gained 1.5 pounds but has since lost it (she would steal to eat Zoey's kidney food- High fat and carbs in addition to her own food). If the other Yorkies fussed I gave them food. |
