Treat Chubby Tummies With This (Instead of Kibble)

Oct 21 2008 - 12:30am

Some pups – mine included – can eat (and eat and eat) without ever seeming to get a full belly. And, as you can see, North's already a big fan of pumpkin [1]. Adding one to the other, and I wanted to share yet another use [2] for this can o' goodness – weight loss. If your pup's a touch overweight (maybe it's those puppy-dog eyes pleading for another peanut butter yum [3]), consider adding some pumpkin to his normal meal plan. Substitute pure, canned pumpkin (not pie filling) for one-third of your pet's diet. This roughage has a similar texture to canned dog food and happens to be vitamin-filled and super filling, too.
