Diet pills for dogs?
Now man’s best friend is getting fat too. If your dog weighs 20% more than its ideal weight, then welcome your pup to the obesity epidemic! Dogs eat fattier foods than humans. Obese canines now have a government-approved drug called Slentrol. This liquid drugs helps to cut down puppy fat and NO, it’s not for humans or cats either!The diet pill should be accompanied by a healthy diet plan and exercise.
But is this going a bit too far? Can you cope with dog distress symptoms. Diet pills have side effects and you don’t want a vomiting,lethargic,sickly dog,do you? Some critics believe that it’s time pet owners get responsible.
Instead of resorting to pills, owners should take their dogs for regular check-ups and ask the vet what has to be done. You’ll have to lower the dog food calories and take your dogs out for longer walks. Obesity can cause dogs to lose breath easily and make them intolerant to heat and exercise. So take practical steps to help your pets.

This is a great advancement! My aunts dog at one point ate our cuban restuarant leftovers! Very greasy and fatty foods I also noticed that the dog was very nasty and loved to bite people perhaps because of her carniverous diet

This is animal abuse, and the SPC should be notified. Fine or jail time! This owner is discusting, selfish, abusive, I hope they see this. Karma is a strong thing. Jerks.
