Never an animal lover nor someone who enjoyed having her picture taken, the opportunity couldn’t be missed when Corona sat in front of my mother. Not objecting to having her picture taken I took several pictures but our dog didn’t want to comply.
I’m back! Some of my friends were wondering what happened to me because my blog went missing for a little bit. The company who hosts all our company sites moved to a bigger building and all the servers were down for a few days. That meant no e-mail or blogs for a few days. Everything seems back to normal now.
A lot has happened since I’ve been gone. First, both Chloe and Sunny found their furever homes! I sure am happy for them!
Just as with humans, one of the biggest health problems today for dogs is obesity. Many owners think their pudgy dogs are adorable, when in fact they are extremely unhealthy. Overweight dogs can develop the same kinds of problems that overweight humans can, such as diabetes mellitus, which can be very tricky to treat. Obesity can also reduce your dog’s life expectancy.
If you are not sure if your dog is overweight, there is a very easy way to do so visually and by touch. A dog of normal weight should have an indentation at his waistline, and his ribs should be easily felt under his skin. An overweight dog will not have a waistline and there will be a thicker layer of fat over his ribs.
