He said, if your dog gets fat, you're feeding too much, if thin, too little, so check them regularly. I'll take your advice and weigh her more often.<br /><br />I'm popping over to your blog to ask you whether the beans should be raw, and, if so, should they be mushed up in the juicer.parlancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11175843064324380048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179993983134824252.post-91254209746106163352009-10-12T22:04:30.111+11:002009-10-12T22:04:30.111+11:00Curator, as I said to Happy, Penny is gaining lots...Curator, as I said to Happy, Penny is gaining lots of walks in return for the loss of treats and extra food. So I think she'll be okay about it all. However, she did disappear outside this evening and was gone so long I went to see why this unusual disappearance. She was chewing on an old bone she had dug up. She must have a good memory, because I don't remember when she buried this one.parlancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11175843064324380048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179993983134824252.post-53186485953140191912009-10-12T22:03:45.898+11:002009-10-12T22:03:45.898+11:00Just think of how spunky you will look in that new...Just think of how spunky you will look in that new outfit for summer...Parlance of course, because I assume you are going to get much fitter and slimmer too with all that restraint and extra exercise.<br />How on earth one remains firm with big brown eyes pleading at you I do not know, but good luck.theregathahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04956028783556947063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179993983134824252.post-66033683905811144692009-10-12T22:01:14.917+11:002009-10-12T22:01:14.917+11:00Happy, it's good news and bad news for Penny, ...Happy, it's good news and bad news for Penny, because treats have disappeared from the menu altogether, there are lots of cuddles and pats, belly rubs and ear pullings (she love them). <br /><br />Also, two walks a day! <br /><br />I've received lots of great advice, and one of them is to substitute pumpkin for a little of Penny's usual meal.

I know it sounds silly, but just an additional .5 lb on JoJo is something to be concerned about and gauging that takes weighing often :)Johann The Doghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11676712437788270947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179993983134824252.post-20015328390444887862009-10-10T21:08:21.912+11:002009-10-10T21:08:21.912+11:00Yep, Sparky, we can do it.
