I fill Gemma’s kong with reduced fat peanut butter and put her in her crate before going to work. It keeps her busy while I’m getting out the door. Before she used to whine and whimper and I could hear her while I was driving away. This works great, however she is a small breed and is gaining weight and it has to be the peanut butter. What is a good treat that she’ll like and won’t get overweight eating? |

hi, You don’t have to switch to a “lite” food, but you might want to since it means you won’t have to cut back quite as much on the amount you feed your dog. (Hey, if it was easy for us to deny our dogs we wouldn’t be in this fix in the first place.) Regardless, he’ll be eating less, so help him feel satisfied by adding low-calorie, high-fiber foods to his bowl. These can include fresh steamed green beans, low-sodium canned green beans, and plain canned pumpkin. Your dog will still feel as if he’s getting a lot of food; he just won’t be taking in as many calories. here are some guidelines: hope this helps. |

hi … woofwoof.. Quality food and clean water are essential to a long, healthy life. As soon as your dog arrives at your house, whether he’s a puppy or an adult, feed him the best-quality food you can afford. You’re likely to have a fitter dog with a shinier coat, as well as fewer vet bills. A high-quality diet can help housetrain your puppy because it’s easier to digest and produces smaller, firmer stools. The bulky stools produced by grain-based diets are more difficult for dogs to hold for long periods. i have here a site to help you make some research for more info..http://dogtime.com/feeding-puppies.html have a great doggie time.. |
