Product Description

Over the past few years more & more pets are becoming obese. A common cause of excess weight in pets is over-feeding & under-exercising. Energy requirements have changed since nowadays many dogs spend most of their lives inside. They do not get the chance to run around a lot which means that they cannot burn the energy they consume so these calories are stored as fat. Being overweight not only affects your pet´s well-being it can also have long-term effects on your pet´s health & ultimately reduce its life expectancy. It is important to make sure your dog is the right weight. If your dog is a short-haired breed its waist & ribs should be just visible. If your dog is a long haired breed you should be able to feel its ribs easily. If you cannot see or feel the ribs your pet is overweight (or rather if already on a diet it has not yet achieved its ideal weight).
