  • your dog is FAT !!! STOP FEEDING IT .. PORE THING

  • Foreveraloneeeeeeeee

  • @HumanoidSparky An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Once you allow your dog to get fat, especially if he is old.. it is often VERY hard to get him to lose the weight. And as you said, also it causes stress that older dogs just don't need and is very bad for them. Good luck though, remember, much like people.. exercise is just as important as a diet! :)

  • @mjfromga89 Ofcourse you're right, but it's easier said than done. My older chihuahua is starting to look like the canine version of John Belushi. We recently put him on a diet and, let me tell you, no dog has ever been so depressed.

  • More importantly, you can do a geriatric dog a lot of favors by putting them on a diet so they can walk easier. That dog is much too fat to be that old! My 14 year old dog would be screwed if he was that fat, but thanks for the tip on the massage though...

  • That happens to be a crease in her belly, but one day when you grow up you will learn your anatomy. Good luck with that!

  • Is that.... A dog vagina. eww

  • i have watched many of your videos and i am very particular in this one cuz my rednose pitbull whom i dont even need to spred her legs cuz chest is her favorite but i need to ask she is 8 human year and i was wondering if your push a little more than usualshe loves it. she is firm and never pushes away it seems harder makes her happier im no expert yet i know i shouldnt do heavier without knowledge but she loves more pressure on her chest is it okay to appply 3-4 psi rather than 1-2

  • thanks for the leson my dos is 10 yrs! and she loves it!!!! :)
