- Can the ribs be easily felt with slight fat cover, or are they difficult to feel under moderate or thick fat cover?
- From the side view, do you see an abdominal tuck?
- Is there thickening at the tail base?
- From the overhead view, is there a well-proportioned waist?
- Or, from the overhead view, does she have a marked hourglass shape? (an indicator of being underweight)
- Or, from the overhead view, is the back slightly or markedly broadened at the waist? (indicators of being moderately to severely overweight)
- Is your dog slow to rise or move around?
- Is she reluctant to exercise, or does she tire easily with activity?
Of course, this doesn’t mean that you must measure and weigh every meal you prepare. Once you do it a few times, you’ll get the hang of it.
The ideal solution, once you’ve determined your dog’s caloric needs, is to prepare meals at home. This gives you total control of the nutritional side and the caloric side of the content.
