See, Doc, he's not fat. I can feel his ribs.

Hahaha, as much as this cartoon made me laugh, it also made me sad. So many people are in denial that their pet is overweight, or worse they think it's "cute"...but they don't think about how it's affecting the dog's organs. If you love your pet, keep it at a healthy weight! You are in control of their diet, so it's your responsibility to keep them healthy. Speaking of, I've noticed Rhyley has put on about a pound since we've moved (which for her is way too much), probably because we haven't been walking as much. So we are about to go for a nice long walk! The weather is AMAZING today, it's in the 60s (thank God, since my A/C is broken)! We're going to take a path that leads down to a road with cow pastures and farmlands...this will be interesting. [Side note: I had my windows open last night and the smell of cow manure was drifting in with the wind...yes, this is definitely the country!]
