Hi koha-pet,
We’ve all been there, right? You don’t pay attention to what you are eating and (oh boy) … the pounds start to add up. Whelp humans—we aren’t alone in needing to pay attention to what and how much we eat.
According to the Association for Pet Obesity Prevention more than 50% of dogs are overweight or obese. That’s right…upwards of 50 MILLION dogs fall into this category in the U.S. alone! And letting our best buds get too overweight can put them at greater risk of osteoarthritis, heart disease and even many types of cancer.
It’s literally a growing problem…and we pet parents can help.
So we figured we’d use October’s National pet Obesity Awareness Month to offer up some tips to help you avoid the pitfalls of a husky … well … husky.
