WOOF! - Get me off of this diet!


Woof, woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof. Woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof! Woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof. Woof WOOF!
Oops .... looks like Turbo started this one on his own and some translation is needed. You see, he's had enough of the diet he's been put on. And apparently he just can't take it anymore. Similar to many people needing a change of bad eating habits, Turbo had to turn over a new leaf before the new year as he'd packed on a few too many extra pounds. He's not alone as 25 - 40 percent of dogs in this country are deemed overweight or obese. It's worse for the overweight or obese human population as they number more than 60 percent. YIKES! So, not unlike Valerie Bertinelli and Kirstie Alley before her he sought the help of professionals, but not Jenny Craig. No, his diet has been courtesy of Wellness dog foods' Weight Management Super 5 Mix. He's lost the weight, is maintaining the loss and is ready to get back to "normal food" as he calls it. Unfortunately he can't quite understand that he needs to be more active again before the diet can change. He is ruled by his stomach though, as most dogs (and humans) are. Turbo's given treats throughout the day so hopefully they will help to ease his misery. A new toy won't hurt either so it's a trip to the pet store tomorrow! He'll be so pleased .... we hope. Woof!
