Being overweight can seriously impact a dog’s health, especially for working dogs like guide dogs. Extra weight can lead to a host of issues, including decreased mobility, joint pain, and fatigue, making it difficult for them to perform their important tasks effectively. Guide dogs need to be agile and responsive to their environment; excess weight can slow them down and hinder their ability to react quickly to potential hazards.

Moreover, obesity can increase the risk of serious health conditions like diabetes, heart disease, and respiratory issues, which can significantly shorten their working life. For working dogs, maintaining an ideal weight is crucial not just for their own health but also for the safety and independence of the people they assist. Keeping these dogs fit and healthy ensures they can do their job to the best of their ability, providing invaluable support to their handlers. Regular exercise and a balanced diet are essential!

Always split dog treats in half — not because your dog needs portion control, but because they’ll think they got two treats instead of one. That’s called canine economics. 🐾💰
