B<\/span>eing overweight<\/strong> is just as dangerous for your dog as it is for people. If you're trying to help your dog slim down, this\u00a0homemade dog food for weight loss<\/strong> may be just what you need.<\/p>\n

Did you know that many of the risks to overweight humans are the same for overweight pets? Diabetes, heart disease, certain types of cancer, and respiratory issues are all more commonly diagnosed in dogs who are obese.<\/p>\n

According to the Association for Pet Obesity Prevention<\/a>, about 59% of dogs in the U.S. are overweight or obese. That is the equivalent of more than 40 million dogs in this country alone that need to lose weight.<\/p>\n

What you need to take away from this is that\u00a0an overweight dog is an unhealthy dog<\/strong><\/em>.\u00a0If you want your pet to live the longest, healthiest life possible, you need to help him shed the extra weight.<\/p>\n

Ask your veterinarian if this homemade dog food for weight loss would be a good solution for your dog's weight problems. They will evaluate your pup and this recipe to ensure it meets his unique nutritional needs.<\/p>\n

Homemade Dog Food for Weight Loss<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

\"Homemade<\/p>\n

When your dog eats more calories in a day than he burns, it leads to weight gain. That's common sense, right?<\/p>\n

The reason I mention this is because you may just need to adjust the portions you're serving your pooch or increase the amount of exercise he gets each day. Your veterinarian will evaluate your pet and help you make some lifestyle changes<\/a> that will make your dog healthier.<\/p>\n

Before you switch your dog to a homemade weight-loss dog food, you MUST consult your veterinarian.<\/strong> They can help you decide whether a change in diet is needed or if it's just a matter of portion control and an extra walk in the evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\n<\/symbol>\n<\/defs>\n<\/svg>\nPrint<\/a><\/span>

This homemade dog food for weight loss recipe is made in a pressure cooker. You can see my review of the Cosori Pressure Cooker used in this video here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

You could also use a slow cooker or make this recipe on your stovetop. I prefer the pressure cooker, because it's fast and easy.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t
