Keep Your Dog Fit and Trim with Pumpkin
But here is the most interesting piece of information. In addition to making tasty pumpkin dog treats and pumpkin dog cookies, you can help your
fat dog
lose weight. There are some nutritionists that swear by this program. Here is how it works. Simply reduce your dog's pet food by 1/3 and replace that dog food with an equal amount of canned pumpkin. Make sure that it is just pumpkin and not pumpkin pie mix which contains sugar and other ingredients. Dogs love pumpkin, and the canned pumpkin has a similar texture to canned dog food. But—here's the best part—it provides tons of vitamins and roughage. Pumpkin helps your dog digest her food. And it has far fewer calories than dog food. On this diet, your dog will feel full and she won't be as likely to fuss about not getting more food!
