Pet Obesity Awareness

Chubby cheeks and round bellies might look cute—but extra weight can mean extra risk. Today, we’re shining a light on pet obesity, a growing concern that affects nearly 60% of dogs in the U.S. 🐶💔

Excess weight can lead to joint pain, diabetes, heart issues, and a shorter lifespan. But the good news? Small changes make a big difference.

💡 Try swapping high-calorie treats for carrot sticks or green beans
🚶‍♂️ Add an extra walk or play session to your pup’s day
🧠 Use puzzle feeders to slow down mealtime and boost enrichment

Let’s help our dogs live longer, happier lives—one healthy habit at a time. Because love isn’t just about belly rubs… it’s about making sure that belly stays balanced. 💛
