Awww congratulations! I just LOVE this update, thanks for letting us join the pawty.

And yep, slimmer-than-usual Tripawds make healthier Tripawds. I agree, legs do add a few pounds, something we never think about till one goes away. Great job on helping him lose weight. How did you do it?

He is on a prescription diet.... its a metabolic diet!  He seems to like it and is not acting like he is starving except at our dinner time than he puts on the biggest show.... moaning and puppy eyes galore!!  But when its his dinner time he eats fairly slow not gobbling it all up in one bite.. takes him about 5 minutes to eat.. which was about the same with his old food.

Oh cool, thanks for letting me know what food worked. There's a Hills Campaign happening right now, #PerfectWeight, that if you search for it on social media, you'll see how it's working for other dogs too.

Love those photos. What a funny pup!
