Canine obesity can lead to countless health conditions. When Obie the dachshund pup was overfed by his elderly parents, who couldn’t walk him or encourage exercise regularly, he ballooned to a frightening size.
So they put him into the care of Nora Vanatta, who became the pup’s new Mommy and helped him work through the weight. At first, the pup was so large that even walking outside the front door took lots of encouragement and praise to get him to do so. But the pup was determined, too, and would even take a few extra steps to walk up to Mommy for pets!
Now, after lots of work and the help of Mommy, Obie has lost a whopping 54 pounds! He now weighs 23 pounds and has a trim, fit-looking figure just right for his breed. All that perseverance paid off, and now he’s healthier and happier! Like and share this awesome success story!
