Helping your dog shed those extra pounds takes dedication and commitment. You want to make sure your pet loses the extra weight and keeps it off.

Here are several steps you can follow to help your dog get back on the road to good health:

· Feed the exact amount of the food product recommended by your veterinarian and ask about the best way to switch your dog to this food.

· Do not feed high-calorie treats.

· Feed a dog on a weight loss program at different times than you feed your other pets by determining specific feeding times for each pet.

· Feed your dog before you eat your own meal to keep it from begging for table scraps.

· Divide the total amount fed per day into three or four small meals.

· Regular exercise will help your dog. Ask your veterinarian for advice.

· Have your dog weighed regularly as recommended by your veterinarian.

· Encourage your dog with plenty of praise and playtime.
