Take a minute to check how you determine the amount of food you give to your dog. If you followed the serving recommendation based on the label, then your dog is likely to gain weight.
The recommendation on the label is general instruction, but that doesn’t mean you have to follow it. You have to adjust the amount of food based on your dog’s level of physical activity, age, and health condition.
If you have been following the food manufacturer’s recommendation, it’s time to cut back on the amount of food that you give your dog. You can start by reducing the amount by at least 5%. And if your dog’s weight has not decreased, you can reduce it 10% more.
Expect that your dog will ask for more. Don’t give in to your dog’s request. What you can do is divide the meal into 2 to 3 small servings so your pet will feel that she is always eating.
If your pet needs to lose extra weight, do consult your veterinarian Roanoke, VA.
