I had a chubby rott come here to lose weight once
http://www.rottweiler.net/rottie/smile.gif
He was 24 lbs overweight. in 7 weeks he lost 18 lbs!
I was feeding him 1 cup ProPlan Turkey and Barley twice a day
1000 mg vit c twice a day
multi vitamin pm
2 mile walk once a day and playtime in a fenced pen all day long
Also be sure if he does not start to lose weight after few weeks have his thyroid tested. Dogs that won't lose weight on the above diet have almost always turned out to have a thyroid problem
Good luck!
