| Don't apologize for asking questions, that's why were all here! :D :D
Let me use myself for an example. I am overweight. For years, I was able to get by without problems, I have low blood pressure, overall "good health"... but now that I am getting past 30... my knees are bad, and my ankles worse, from supporting all that extra weight...
And then for my dog example, my girl is probably 10 pounds overweight. For a dog that might not seem like alot, however, when her friend came over to play tonite, who is the same age, but the correct weight... he left mildly panting, and it took her about an hour, to settle down and stop huffing and puffing... (I am working on slimming her down, as I don't want her to have any more problems than necessary) ;)
Hope this helps a little...:D
