Her weight could be slowing her down some. Extra weight can put a strain on the rest of the body, including her joints. I'd ask the vet about it too. There could be alot going on with her, or a combination of things that are presenting these symptoms. Ususally, one would increase exercise and decrease food to get the weight off, but with this hot weather spell, outside exercise may not be a good option for her at this time, depending on what else, if anything she has affecting her. I wouldn't stress her (with exercise) either till you know for sure that her heart and lungs are okay. |
