What is the best way to tell my dog he needs to lose some weight without offending him and him calling me fat?

Question

I might not be the best example of fitness but Im worried about my dog he needs to lose some wieght

Answer 1

while he is sleeping, strap on one of those piggy noses on him. You won't get the blame, he'll get the hint and be doing Richard Simmons tapes in the basement in no time..Don't watch him though, it is quite upsetting to see him in his sequined thong....

Answer 2

You don't have to tell the dog anything...but he could use some exercise. Get your son to walk the dog and tell your son that a dog is like a "babe magnet"....that way both your son and dog will get some exercise and your son can meet girls without going to the gym.

Answer 3

Be careful about putting him on a diet and not telling him...my aunt had this beagle that was the size and shape of the Hindenburg. She put him on a diet, and he broke into the pantry and ate a ten-pound bag of flour to get even. He was crapping loaves of bread for a week.

Answer 4

Why don't you two go on a diet together? Go for walks in the park, play fetch... Go find some girls to hang out with. Sounds like fun.

Answer 5

Are we seriosly talking about your 4 legged animal? Or are we speaking of a human friend?

Answer 6

well you don't tell your dog anything just stop giving it tabvle scraps and treats and start walking it plus dogs don't care about there weight plus they don't speak english

Answer 7

Tell him in French....always sounds better, he won't have a clue what you are saying. Smaller portions and exercise always do wonders too.

Answer 8

give him low calorie dog food. my dog really liked Kibbles and Bits Lean.

Answer 9

Feed him once a day, and no treats in between and the same goes for you!

Answer 10

Why would your dog care or listening if you call it fat!
