<div>Good Morning, </div> <div> </div> <div>Ok, here's the deal.
Deuce and Rowdy were at the vet last week, and we all got a good
spanking. Deuce and Rowdy both have gained 6 pounds each. Deuce
was 72 pounds in August, and now he's 78 and Rowdy was 52 and now he's
58. Doctor was like WOW!!!! What's going on?? I was like
it's OHIO for God's sake, and with this weather we are having, I don't
like to take the boys out in it. He checked their hearts, and
when he got to Deuce he said, I can't find his heart beat, and I was like
WHAT? he goes wait, I had it on a fat role under his arm...oh my
gosh!!!! So I have been working really hard on trying to get them
under control and honestly Deuce is struggling with this, in fact he is
getting very upset with me, cause I have cut back on the food and
treats. He will sit at his food bowl 2 hours after he has eaten and
bark. I tell him that he ate 2 hours ago, and he won't be
eating again until the next morning, and at that point, if he could flip me
off, I think he would. You know, that hurts my feelings, cause I
am only trying to keep him alive and healthy, but I just don't think he
sees it that way. He will walk away in disgust and go lay on the couch
and not look at me. I guess love hurts sometimes. I was buying
Canidae weight management food, but it's so expensive and the bag is
smaller, that I went back to the Canidae all stage. I guess I will be
getting a second job so I can buy them the weight management bag. I do
hope as soon as the weather warms up, we can get back on track and walk,
cause they truly love their walks, as do I. </div> <div> </div> <div>
