Q&A: I have an overweight 2 year old yellow lab, just wanted to know the best weight loss dog food to buy?

Question by Samantha: I have an overweight 2 year old yellow lab, just wanted to know the best weight loss dog food to buy?
Also, I feed him 2x per day. In the morning he gets 2 cups of dry and the evening he gets his dry and 1 can of dog food. I am substituting the can for a cup of dry. We walk an average of 1-3 miles per day, plays in the yard with my other dog & gets longer walks/hikes on the weekends. He is a stocky english lab. Thanks!

Try Nutra. It’s expensive but worth it. It also contains Glucosamine Chondrotin which is good for labs–they have a tendency for hip dysplasia.

    dont waste ur money on foods……take ur dog for walks more often and give her a lot of exercise.

    talk to your vet about RD. you can only get it from a vet, but it works.

  3. Daniel says:

    Good lord, and you wonder why he is fat. Back off on the volume of food. You don’t need to put him on diet dog food. He’s not a human that has choice on what he gets to eat.
    Keep giving him the dry food 2x per day, but cut it down to 1 1/2 cups at each serving. ditch the canned dog food. He doesn’t need it. I think Iams is a good brand of dry dog food.
    Most important is to steer clear of human food. Don’t let him have it. It’s not good for him.

  4. Shadow's Melon says:

    We feed our dogs Innova and when our Doxie was putting on a little weight, our vet told us that we didn’t need to find a diet food (not for this brand at least), but he consulted us as to what portionings we should adjust the feedings to.

  5. Miriam says:

    Diet foods are unhealthy, just feed him less.

    Feed him less. Way less!

Should I get a new dog after loss of pet?

Question by UCURGYPSY: Should I get a new dog after loss of pet?
My little dog passed away the morning after Christmas due to kidney failure. Needless to say I am completely heartbroken. While I know that no other dog will ever replace him, I am wondering if getting a new puppy will help with the grieving process. I would love some input from people who have dealt with similar losses. Thanks.

    umm ya go for it omg i cant even imagine! i love my dog t pieces and if she died…. i dont even know :’( i say u should it will help you forget about your late dog and help you recover faster

  2. Mouth_of_da_South says:

    No. It’s never a good idea to get a new pet right after loosing one. Give it a couple months, and then when you are ready, go looking for a new dog.

  3. AMBER M says:

    I will give my opinion. YES. No one in their right mind will think that you got a new dog to replace the old one. However sitting around grieving and lonely will not help you get over the old dog. Rescuing a dog will make you feel so good about yourself and you can do it in your old dogs honor. I completely urge you to rescue! It will bring new life into your home and you can start doing things again like you did with your other dog.

    took me a year to grieve for my mini pin to get another dog to love, maybe give it alittle time but really depends on how you feel. so sorry.

  5. pinkdenial says:

    When our first dog died, my family waited a little while to get another. When the second dog died, we already owned the third. When the third died, we already owned the fourth.

    From my experience, it is MUCH easier to deal with the loss of a dog when there are other furry friends there.

  6. chihuahua lady says:

    I have lost many pets over the span of 35 years of owning animals. I think getting another dog would be a good idea. Some people are not ready for that yet, but since you are asking, I think it would be a really good idea. You will never forget the one you lost and will always love it, but a new pet will help you heal. I am so sorry for the loss of your beloved pet. May a new pet bring you much joy and happiness.

  7. Gr8danelady says:

    That really depends on you. It’s natural to take time out to grieve, and it’s a very necessary process. But I found, every time I’ve lost a dog, that I couldn’t stand the silent house, and no one to meet me at the door.
    So the longest I’ve been without a dog was 2 weeks, until we got our new pup. There was no question of replacing dear Magnus, there could never be another one like him.
    But love doesn’t just end, it needs to be passed on, and there is plenty to go around. That’s what I’ve found after raising dogs for 35 years.

    My best friend chopper just died too. I was pondering the thought of another pet. On one hand I think back and I would of rather had chopper than not had him. Even though my heart is sad now,he brought it alot of joy when he was here. So a new pet would probely be good in the long run,because the overall aspect of having a pet is good. Personally,though I dont know if I can lose somebody else I love. The pain seams to much.

  9. mickey g says:

    if i could have, i would have gotten one right away too. but my mom was so heartbroken she refuesed for almost 4 years.

    you might want to give yourself some time to greive a little, but if you feel you’re ready for it, then by all means, go ahead
