Blobby Bobbie has lost a kilo

Blobby Bobbie (border collie x) arrived with me two weeks ago very overweight (30 kils )due to lack of exercise. Back at vet today and he has lost 1.2 kilos in two weeks due to lots of lovely walks - what a star. My aim is to get him down to about 23/24 kilos. When he is normal weight I will drop the Blobby and he will be Bobbie Dazzler

Making a new thread might get a few more replies, especially if you put it in the diet section
Has Dylan had a thorough health check? Weight gain can have medical reasons and if you've cut down the food dramatically and upped the exercised and it's still not shifting, I would be considering a few tests to find out why. Dogs can get thyroid issues for example and this can have an effect on a dog's weight.

Well done Sue and Bobs - he is a smashing lad Love the pics. He must be thoroughly enjoying his new life. I am sure the weight will continue to fly off him, and he will be showing off his svelte new figure in no time at all
