As the owner of lovely but also slightly chubby dog, I cannot help getting a bit nervous about the increasing focus on pet obesity. I bring him out for daily walks, but when we are home he normally just moves from his spot on the carpet and into the kitchen to lap some water from his dish. And when I’m at work, I actually do not know how much he really moves. My fear is, not much! I would not call my dog overweight (yet) but I must admit that I’m spending more and more time considering how to get my dear friend up and moving, to prevent overweight.
