The dog named Snuffy that lives in Herndon, Virginia has become rather obese and found it difficult to deal with things in her life. Snuffy had reached three times the average weight for a beagle. However, the dog never lost hope, and that was why she did her best so that she could go and achieve a healthy weight.
To lose the excess weight, Snuffy needed to exercise. Exercise has always been the most effective means of losing weight for humans, and the same holds true for dogs. It is a hard thing to do especially if you’re not used to doing it but it is worth it and is a healthy activity.
The owners of Snuffy became concerned about their pet’s weight. She was already obese, so they needed to take action. They began to devise a strategy to help the dog lose weight.
From 65 pounds, Snuffy was able to make it to 40 pounds. It took her four months to do this, and she put in a great deal of effort. Her parents, who were equally motivated to help the dog stay healthy, gave her the guidance and motivation that she needed.
Caroline Webster, Snuff’s owner, explained why her dog grew so large. She said that the dog had the habit of eating whenever she was hungry. She also likes eating ham and turkey.
Caroline also revealed that in order to help Snuffy lose weight, she had to restrict the dog’s food intake. She also ensured that the dog ate the proper foods. Another thing that she did was to think of tactics and techniques to encourage Snuffy to be more active. Any form of movement would be a form of exercise for the dog.
Excellent work, Snuffy and Caroline! May the story of Snuffy motivate us all to begin exercising and eat healthy.
