When dogs become overweight
Written on Wednesday, 29 of July, 2009 at 9:47 pm
Don’t we just love feeding our pet dogs? They eat almost any food we throw at them and they never tell us to stop. In fact, they even ask for more. As I was browsing the net, I saw an FDA approval on a diet pill FOR DOGS! What the heck? It’s not the dog’s fault why it’s overweight, it’s the owner’s. The idea of diet pills for dogs is just so ridiculous. Since elementary all of us know that dogs are carnivores, so feeding them a high-carbo diet is the reason why they are fat.
Perhaps our closeness to our pets affected our treatment to them. We humans tend to share everything with our pets including our bed. We oftentimes see them as part of the family, hence we treat them like humans, forgetting that they are animals with different needs. It is okay for me to take a diet pill but I certainly won’t give my dog one. There’s just no point in suppressing a dog’s appetite and still continuing to feed it more calories.
