weight.
My oldest staffie Gypsy, had an operation on her ankle when she was 6 months old..she damaged a cartlidge....She is only 141/2 inches tall, and because of now having athritis in the ankle(She is on metacam daily) she compensates by using her front legs more when running..resulting in her buliding up her chest muscles..She is now 17 kilo's which is too heavy for her height.But you can see her ribs, so the extra weight is muscle,How do I get her back to 15 kilo's..she has an hours walk a day, would do more if I let her...
