Slimmer of the Month

March 2009

Okey weighed 34.2kg in November 2008.  Although accepting he needed to loose weight, initially his owner was reluctant to follow an obesity diet wanting instead to reduce the quantity of his normal food.  Okey can be very fussy and she was concerned he would not eat the recommended food. 

His owner then put Okey on a light version of his normal diet and we calculated the calorie reduction he would need but Okey appeared very hungry.

Royal Canin Obesity and weight management diets are designed so the quantity of food is not greatly reduced meaning hunger should not be an issue.  The carbohydrate and fat content is suitably lower than non prescription diets.

Today Okey weighs 27.8kg having lost a total of 6.4kg which is fantastic.  Being a hairy breed, it may not be obvious when looking at his photograph but his ribs can be felt and a waist is definitely under that beautiful coat.  Okey's increased energy is another sign of how much fitter and healthier he is.
