How can I better help my dog to lose weight?
I have a 15 year old Chihuahua/Beagle mix who is having trouble losing weight. I’ve decreased the amount of food I give her, have been taking her on daily walks, and she is also very playful, always playing fetch with her toys, but she doesn’t look like she’s lost any weight.
What else can I do to help her lose weight?

In addition to the decreased food, add about a half can of green beans. It fills them up and helps the lose weight. Its natures weight loss pill.

i’ve never own a dog but i have taken care of other peoples dogs and i find the best way to do it is to start taking away bit by bit of their food and NOT giving them high calorie treats. give your dog about 1 or two treats a day. and keep doing what your doing and she will lose some weight, and if she doesn’t she may not need to lose weight.

She will lose it in time but just watch you’re not making her do too much excercise as she’s at a good age. Mind she’s almost 105 in human years
