Paul Farrell Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 My 8 year old kelpie has piled on the weight despite regular exercise and not being overfed. I feed her VAT[mixed with tuna] and turkey necks]. She has the VAT in the morning and the neck in the evening[both after being walked]. She is desexed having had a litter of 4 years ago. She suffered from phantoms prior to this. Has anyone got advice on getting the weight off. Paul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

puggy_puggy Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Remove the VAN. Just feed her either the turkey neck or tuna in the evening with food processed veggies. She will lose the weight in no time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
