Don't over feed your pet. I know we all love our babies, but too much food is not good for anyone. Show them your love by taking them for a walk or playing in the backyard with the little one's favorite toy.

So many people over feed claiming they "just love him sooo much!" when they would be showing love much more by NOT feeding and playing instead. Good thought but wonder how many receptive ears there are out there...
You are so right. There are so many people out there that thing, "he's always hungry, I guess I'm not feeding him enough" and they give and give more food.
I got a kick out of this photo. When I see mynah birds and pigeons feasting in the dogs' dishes (outside), it's time for me to cut back on the amount.
I loved this picture! And excellent advise too. (I brightened it a little for you).
Best wishes from across the pond, Monique :)
My dog does just the same as yours. I have to put it up high out of the way or she would just help herself all day long.
We have had 6 dogs in our life-mostly large breed. We always did free feed. That way, the dog would eat when it was hungry.
Please don't feed 'human' food. Something like 1 hamburger is equal to 6 bowls of dry dog food. I think
the canned food gives the dogs bad breath.
Find out from your vet how much of your product (each brand is different) your pet should have, how many times a day.
My German Short-hair gets Science Diet for dogs over 6 years of age. She will leave her bowl alone if it is not time to eat. But we offer lots of raw veggies, which the vet said was perfect.
