Is Your Cocker Spaniel Overweight?

When owners give their pets too much to eat or too many treats the weight can start to pack on making it difficult for our pets to move about and be comfortable. If you’re concerned that your Cocker Spaniel is overweight, please call and schedule an appointment with your vet. A healthy weight for this breed can range between 15 and 31 pounds male or female. Your vet will be able to tell you the best weight for your particular pup. When it comes to weight, you should generally be able to feel your dog’s rib bones under a thin layer of skin. If you feel the bones with no layer over it then your dog could be too thin. If you can’t feel the bones because of a thick layer covering it then your dog could be overweight. Consult with your vet Flat Rock, NC about your dog’s diet and exercise routines. Or make an appointment at this website Kanuga Animal Clinic.
