Dogs on a Diet


Seriously! I get the whole 100 calorie pack thing and I must admit that I am one of the consumers who actually buys them. Come on - it is portion control (which is my downfall) and convenience all wrapped up in one little package. But I was completely surprised when I saw this in the dog treat aisle today. Do dogs really need their own snack packs? Our society is completely focused on weight when we create calorie packs for our pets. What is next, exercise programs for them? I was standing in the aisle trying to contemplate why on earth we would need these for animals. I give my dog a treat or two each day. If he is getting fat I cut down. Do I really need to start counting his calories? Or maybe my dogs should do it for themselves. All I can say is only in America!
