Haha Ella, yes they do!
My yorkie is pudgie. She is generally about 7 lbs when she should be 5 lbs. That is such a small amount, but 2 lbs is over 1/3 of her body weight! It's not good for your pet at all, and its a
work in progress for us.
Fuji is very good when excercising restraint with his food. His food bowl is always full and he will only eat when he is hungry. It makes feeding him so easy. (Thank g-d!) Fuji is also very
active so it helps keeps his figure trim and lean.
My Baby is a little overweight but she is getting older and we moved from a giant yard for her to run and play in to a small one and we're about to move to an even smaller yard. She doesn't
get along with other dogs anymore (she got attacked by a neighbors dog last year) so it's hard to take her out on walks.
Once of my cats is a bit overweight, but I find that his weight tends to yo-yo (heavier in the winter, lighter in the summer) so I think he's doing alright. The other 2 cats are a good
weight, the kitten might be a little heavy but it's hard to tell because he's so young and a puffball! My pomeranian is a healthy weight and so is the poodle mix I adopted a few weeks ago,
although he started out underweight and has just come up to a more healthy weight.
Brando's a basset, so we're naturally worried that he'll get overweight as he gets older. Right now he's pretty slim, but he's a puppy and still growing. He eats all his food as soon as you
put it down so we have to be careful not to overfeed him. We keep him very active though, so I'm hoping to have a slim, trim basset on my hands in later years
Luckily, even though my cats eat more than other cats I know, they regulate their weight very well. I just feed them whenever they're hungry, which is usually about four times a day (half a
can each) and dry food nibbles throughout the day!
One of my dogs is 93 pounds and should be about 70, so hugely overweight! The kids refer to him as the vacuum cleaner as he not only eats anything that is dropped, but will also stalk them to
steal their food! He was malnourished as a puppy (before we adopted him), and has always eaten anything he can find except cherry tomatoes and olives! As a result he has arthritis in his hips
and is only 9, and is now taking 4 Bufferin a day in order to walk without limping. My other dog is a perfect weight at 60 pounds, and shows no interest in people food or treats whatsoever!
They are both just right. Bodhi was getting fat right before we moved out of my parent's house because they would give her ice cream!! But when we moved she basically stopped eating (I think
it was from stress) and now she all back to normal!!
One of my kitties is "over weight" according to my vet, but he was a rescue that I bottle fed since he was less than 2 weeks old. His other siblings are of "normal weight", but he's always
been a big guy. We've recently switched the kitties to raw, along with the dogs, and so far he hasn't lost much weight. So, "over weight" he shall remain.
He has been always slim but now that he´s 12 years old has gained a few extra lbs, poor Taro he doesn´t want to exercise anymore, only wants a short walk and come back home to rest
One of my cats is normal, but the other weighs about 18 lbs. She's beautiful, though. I didn't adopt her until she was 3, and that's what she weighed at that time. I have tried, but can't get
her to lose any weight.

He was quite underweight last year, but we luckily got him back up to his normal weight
1I found that overweight cats look really cute.
But I know it's not healthy for them.
2she's been hitting the treadmill and lost a few pounds now she's back to her normal weight range..
3Haha Ella, yes they do!

5My dog is a very lean 111 pounds. He's very muscle-ey.
6My kitty at my home isn't, but at my parents the big boy is HUGE and so is my Beagle because she eats EVERYTHING that falls on teh floor.
7YES HELP! I'm worried about him!!!!

9Bulldogs are supposed to be thick, so as long as I can see the curve of their waist I don't worry.
10My kitties are just right
11Basil is perfect. In fact, he's the only one in the house who is at a healthy weight.

15he's overweight now, but he's been slim and trim until recently.

17No.....his weight is perfect(12 lbs)according to his vet.
18My dog just went to the vet last week and they weighed her she's 54 pounds. Which the vet said was perfect for her.
19My Pucca is perfect
20i have a munchkin breed cat, and he looks fat, but its just because he is squaty, my vet tells me he is in the normal range.
On that note, i was at the vets yesterday, and this FAT dog came in, could barely walk. Poor thing.
21They are both just right. Bodhi was getting fat right before we moved out of my parent's house because they would give her ice cream!! But when we moved she basically stopped eating (I think it was from stress) and now she all back to normal!!
22he's alittle chubby. but not too bad.

24My puppy is great, but my stepsister has a cat who looks excatly like Garfield. She had to put him on the Cat-kins diet!
25Yes my baby is very overweight and everyone always picks on him for it but he's a CAT! Come on!
26Yes, Thor's a little overweight ... we try to watch his weight for him. But, he lives to eat! Sasha is right on ... but she eats to live!
27Awww, that kitty in the picture is so cute!
28He has been always slim but now that he´s 12 years old has gained a few extra lbs, poor Taro he doesn´t want to exercise anymore, only wants a short walk and come back home to rest
