Regulate her feed. Measure it out. How much does she weigh now?

I'd feed her a straight measured 1 cup a day. Feed her a low fat feed. Once you get her down to the desired weight, you can add to the amount just a tad till you figure out what her proper maintenance amount is.....

No problem. Just be patient and you will see the results. Dropping weight off of an obese dog does take some time, but you'll be very pleased once you see results. |
