Welcome to Litsy!

The epidemic obesity problem in America isn't just limited to people. As humans continue to chow down on fast food, fatty treats and sugary desserts our pets are expanding right along with us. Of course its hard to ignore those big eyes our pets give us when they beg for food, but we have to be firm -- because their health depends on it. Studies have shown that obese dogs are at risk for joint and skin problems. To keep our pets happy and healthy for a long time, we need to control their weight. Helping your pet slim down isn't all that difficult -- and author Martha Garvey will show you how. MY FAT DOG (Ten Simple Steps to Help Your Pet Lose Weight For a Long and Happy Life) by Martha Garvey deals directly with our pets' weight problem from causes to cure. More than a dog diet book, readers will learn the facts (and myths) about animal obesity and discover real solutions to insure our pets' heath and longevity.
