Baxter - If Linus can go from 32 pounds down to a svelte 24 pounds, surely you can drop a few easily. It's always easily for you guys anyway (as compared to us ladies!!!)

Recommendation, schmecommendations! Fooey.

Molly found a hamburger yesterday that someone dropped. She's never going to get down to her recommended weight. She sez, 'Baxter - enjoy the bounty of life!'

I feel your pain, Baxter!! Mom put me on a diet 2 years ago because I had to lose 5 WHOLE POUNDS!! She put me on *gasp* weight management food & cut my daily intake to only *double gasp* 3/4 cup a day!! But she splits it up to 3 times a day (1/4 cup at a time) so I say "yay" to more eating!! Plus I get greeny beanies mixed in once a day too!! I lost those 5 pounds in 3 1/2 months!! And now mom says she doesn't feel so bad about letting me have things like doggie ice cream & cookies every once in a while. :)

Hang in there, B!!

Oh Baxter, I feel your pain! Devin is on a diet too. But he keeps gaining weight. I am thinking it is what he finds in the yard. Yuk!!! BOL. He has new low fat dog food and does not like it. I keep forgetting that he likes green beans. I must do green beans tonight for him. Good luck Baxter. I will let you know what he weighs when we go to the vet this month. :(
