Synopsis

Making light of a difficult topic, Obesity discusses an issue that too many dog owners refuse to acknowledge, or even see. Because excessive weight on a dog’s body can shorten his life, obesity is an issue that all owners must face, and author Arden Moore presents it with sensitivity, intelligence, and humor, launching into the book with an opening chapter called Facing the Fat Facts. As all Simple Solutions books do, Obesity offers many remedies for the problem at hand, including fixing diets, making mealtime fun (without refilling the bowl), exercise regimens, play sessions, daily walks and more.
