He would look at us accusingly when we were eating, and when he thought he should get extra food. He did lose weight though. We had another lab who hated running also, even walking. After a while she would sit down and refuse to budge. Try carrying a labrador home ... Good luck getting him to slim down and trim up!

We have to really watch him to make sure he doesn't get too fat...and he is maybe just a little pudgy. He does better when it's warm because we take him on 1 to 2 short walks a day.

The vet suggested we put her on a "diet" and gave her cooked green beans sometimes with a little rice (both cold) for a while and it helped very much.<br /><br />Good luck with ignoring those droopy sweet eyes. I know when Bella looks that way it's so hard to say no :) <br />Franhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10287705328335828286noreply@blogger.com
