[NAGDU] Ui is obesity!

[Terri]

Hello everybody,
  1 lb = 0.45359237 kg
So 4kg is roughly 2lbs
When cutting back the cable guy found that giving my guide fresh carrots and green beans make her just as happy and she has lost a couple of pounds she had gained initially during this crazy time!

Terri & Julie 😎❤️🦮

>Hi, my boy is currently about 4kgs over weight. I had him at the vets this

>when I got him in February. At the moment because we are in lockdown we
>aren't going anywhere so this might have something to do with it as well. He
>was down on the weight we got last time we visited the vet but because we
>were there for my other dog Rolo, Sherlock's weight wasn't recorded on the
>vets records. In the last few weeks my dad has started taking Sherlock out
>with him on one of the two walks he does each day. We have now decided he
>will take him every second day so he doesn't start expecting it every day.
>However, this has upset Rolo because he normally goes out on every walk dad
>does but he isn't taking Rolo when he takes Sherlock because one dog on lead
>is all he can handle. He takes the family dog off lead but she isn't a
>runner like my boys are. I have been told it is a thing with golden
>retrievers that once they get away they don't listen and won't come back. I
>haven't really had this tested with Sherlock but Rolo has gotten out twice
>and both times people were chasing him around the place. The good thing
>about Rolo is he likes talking to people so when he ended up stopping to
>talk to some kids we were able to get them to grab hold of him until we
>could get there.

>Sorry gone on a bit more then I meant to, I'm off to bed for good this time.
>Rolo just came back inside so I don't need to worry anymore about what he
>might be up to.

>Bye for now.
