I have had Willow for a month now. She was 18.3 kg when the vet saw her the day after the night I brought her home. We have just got back from the vet for her first jabs etc and she weighs 15.8kg. Delighted.

Yay, well done, and well done to Willow too :luv:

Wow that is brilliant - she must feel much better for it too :D
Is she more energetic than she was??
Well done both of you :clapping:

Brilliant - I can imagine (knowing what Lily eats like) that putting a Cocker on a diet is akin to starving them to death In their eyes :005:
Well done :clapdance:

Of course. I use the senior/light food from the natural dog food company
http://www.naturaldogfoodcompany.com/Natural-Dog-Food.html
I feed based on the amount suitable for a 13kg dog and we are going to see how we get on.
I also give her an omega fish oil capsule in the morning and she occasionally gets some cucumber in the afternoon

UPDATE.............Just got Willow weighed this evening at the vets. She is now 14.6kg :banana: I am delighted, Well done Willow, just another 2kg to go. :bigarmhug: :happydance:

She must feel much better - does she seem more lively now she is not such a pudding? :005:

Yes definitely Joules. She loves swimming too

You have done really well with her - I think we need some pics of her before and after :shades: :005:
-
That is really good and I am sure Willow feels a lot better for it.

I will post a photo of her when she isdown to trget. My parens really noticed it when they saw her last. Her fur is also growing back although there i still a small patch which is completely bald. Not sure why but there is nothing there at all. Poor love, although hopefully it wont notice a theother hair will eventually cover it and itis on a really dark brown patch so less noticable. She is definitely happy though, her little stump never stops moving.

Well done to Willow and you. Can you help me now to loose weight. :005:

Yay! :dance04:

Well we have done it. Willow saw the vet last night for her post op check from her laparoscopy spay and she weighed in 11.6 kg. We feel that it is a good weight for her as she will probably fluctuate between the 11-12kg area. The vet is delighted. Willow has totally come out of her shell, she is happy, alert, bouncy and adores the love and affection of people and has so much love to give back. It has been a delight to watch this beautiful little girl blossom and I feel privileged to have given her the chance she deserves.
-
Well done to both of you :dance04:
What a great update! :D
