I would like to report a victory!
When we adopted Joey in 2005, he weighed 28 pounds. After 10 months in our house, he weighed 40 pounds! The drastic weight gain was due to inactivity mostly, plus we were feeding him a little more food than was necessary.
Last spring, around this time, I began walking Joey for at least 10-15 minutes a day, sometimes longer. We only skipped our walks if it was raining (although we got caught in a few downpours trying to squeeze a walk in) or if I was out of town (Jeff filled in a few times).
Jeff just took Joey to the vet this morning and we are happy to report Joey weighed in at 33 pounds! I am so proud!
