Instant weight loss!

Poor Monty,  there we were comparing him to a large style 35 kg bag of cement  and talking about how much less food he was going to get.....hope he wasn't listening because it wasn't right.   I got on the scales this morning to check my weight then picked up Monty.  That should have been the first clue because if he'd been 35 kgs like the vet said I couldn't have done that.  But I can lift the new style 25 kg bags and that's exactly what he is.  Not saying that he's slim but then aren't  labradors  usually chubby,  especially as they get older?

Still a few kilos less won't hurt him so we will check how much food he should have compared to what he does have and also check for Pip.  She is a podenco - type of Spanish hunting dog - sort of greyhound shape - and although she eats almost as much as Monty, she does run around a lot more,  usually going from front garden through to the side to watch passing cars or walkers.  And to bark at them.

Anyway for Monty,  good news,  and an almost instant 10 kilo weight loss.
