Via the contact form of Best Dog Food Guide I received the following question:
My dog is overweight by at least 15 pounds. I have cut down on his food intake and also do more walks with him. The problem is I cannot go for long walks. Two back surgeries have limited me in walking very much. He is five years and like me of course he lays down in bed a lot with me because I have to. Is there anything else I can do for him. I tried dog walkers but reliability was a big problem for me so I gave up on that idea. He is a golden lab and the best dog known. I know that if he stays this way his life expectancy will be affected. I tried weight reduction foods for him but that did not work either. Is there something else I can try?

The most common complaint with young dogs is destructive behavior. Destructive behavior is usually an easy problem to solve because it is directly related to supervision. When a dog is with you, he’ll consistently be reprimanded when he picks up your belongings and SHOULD be consistently rewarded for playing with his own toys. When you dog is not with you, he can be safely confined in a puppy proof area of your home or yard. If you are gone for long periods of time you may have difficulty confining the dog adequately while still providing sufficient exercise and enrichment. Consider having a dog walker come during the day or installing a dog run or enrolling your dog in day care at a kennel that can provide a stimulating environment for a growing dog.

The dog may reveal the signs related to the affections in the respiratory system. As a dog owner, you should know dog first aid therapy. For example, when the dog bleeds, immediately take a sterilized cloth or cotton and make some pressure at the point of bleeding injury. This simple dog first aid will arrest the bleeding in no time.
The ice cubes may be kept in the area to cause the constriction of the local blood vessels and finally this may help to arrest the bleeding from the injury. Then you can take your dog to the nearby veterinarian for the intensified therapy.
