Way to go Weight Watchers!!!

Just got back from the vets with the dogs for their annual checkup. I'm so thrilled I can't stand it. Reba our rescue girl who has always been HUGE...like 130lbs and never lost a pound no matter what we did. Well I'm so happy to report that our big girl is now her ultimate lowest weight ever, weighed in at 118lbs!!!! We have had her now over 4 years and this is the very first time that she lost weight. We've noticed a big change in her also. She bounces around and is full of energy, where we have to stop her because of her bad leg. I really believe I can give the credit to her kibble, Canidae Platnium. Even her (severe) arthritis doesn't bother her like it did. This just proves to anyone who thinks big is better is not thinking straight. My fear has always been that her weight will kill her quicker then anything but now she has a better chance of a longer quality of life. We aren't done yet...much more to come off, but we will do it.

Excellent! Good job. We sure like to see our seniors on the thin side. Easier for them all the way around.
