Chonky boi.
Homey weighed in at a hefty 89.3 lbs at his visit with the new vet. She has a lab just like him, and gave me some great advice. Honestly, I think if I cut back topping his food I should be OK. We’ve only lived here three months or so. He gets far more exercise chasing birds and critters in the back yard here than he did in Plano.
Still, fitness is 80% diet.
Aria clocked in at 76.
So I’m exploring diet dog food. Their food is 400 cal/cup. I need to lose at least a hundred of that. I also need to tell the girl to not feed them extra treats, like chicharrons.
One great thing – after years of one pushing tooth cleanings for Aria by one of the old vets, she doesn’t need them. The vet tech here sized her up and said “Holy shit! for an 8 year old dog, her choppers are sparkling clean!”.

He does look a tad … stout. That was a word once used to describe Duke. Well… Duke was a bulldog so, yeah. And while Winston has a name very commonly bestowed upon Bulldogs… stout might not be the best state of affairs as to his stature.
Though seeing in his portrait the other day, he has a serious talent when it comes to … let’s call it “Treat Requesting”. Tough to resist sharing with a smile like that.
Especially when it seems to have the power to wrap certain ladies around your little finger or paw… as it were.
As to immaculate choppers, job well done! Not an easy task for sure.
