Protect your pets from salt and salty food. Salty food causes obesity in dogs, cats, rabbits, etc.

If you have an overweight pet dog, cat or rabbit, it is overweight because of eating food containing added salt, e.g. leftovers from your takeaway meal. This is bad for them. Give them unsalted food instead. They will lose weight, have more energy and live longer.

The same applies to overweight owners of pets...(o:

Overweight Pets

If you have an overweight pet dog or cat it is because they have been eating food containing added salt. This is bad for them. Give them unsalted food instead. They will lose weight, have more energy and live longer.

A slimming drug for pet dogs! - What foolishness! - They just need to eat only food that does not contain added salt.

Dog weight-loss pill approved by vets

Extract from the Telegraph:

"A new slimming drug to help tackle Britain's growing dog obesity crisis has been approved for use by British vets.

The liquid drug, called Sentrol, has already been used successfully in the United States and experts believe it will help cut the increasing number of overweight pets in Britain.

Vets believe up to 40 per cent of Britain's estimated nine million dogs are grossly overweight, compared with only around 10 per cent in the 1970s.

However, the RSPCA has criticised the new drug, claiming the best way to keep a dog slim is through a healthy diet and regular exercise."

This is sheer folly. - Obesity in pets - dogs, cats, rabbits, for instance - is caused by giving them food containing added salt, e.g. the leftovers of the owner's meal (or ready meal).

If you have an overweight pet dog or cat it is because they have been eating food containing added salt. This is bad for them. Give them unsalted food instead. They will lose weight, have more energy and live longer.

How to Lose weight!

A slimming club for fat cats and dogs! - It's quite unnecessary. - They just need to be eating food without added salt.

The slimming club for fat cats and dogs - Telegraph

Extracts:

"Half of dogs and cats in Britain are overweight, according to the RSPCA."

""A weight problem can affect a pet's quality of life and lead to straining of the joints, as well as internal illnesses like diabetes, liver disease and heart disease.""

Pet dogs and cats become overweight when they are fed food containing salt. This tends to happen if their owner gives them part of the owner's meal - a bit of a takeaway meal, for instance. - Takeaways tend to contain a lot of salt.

If you feed an overweight dog or cat food that has had no salt added, they will swiftly, easily and safely lose weight and will feel much more alert and energetic as a result.

Salty food is not good for your pet dog or cat. Don't feed them bits from a takeaway meal or a processed food meal. It could make them fat/diabetic.

Remember: pharmaceuticals don't just damage people; they can damage pets too.

For example, amitriptyline (also known as Elavil) frequently/usually causes weight gain in people because it makes them sensitive to salt and they develop sodium and water retention. - In your pet dog, the effect would be even more pronounced because of your pet's smaller size compared to a person. - See http://www.wildeaboutsteroids.co.uk/ami.html for information about amitriptyline and weight gain.

And if your pet is prescribed steroid medication, this too causes extreme salt sensitivity, with sodium and water retention. See http://www.wildeaboutsteroids.co.uk/steroids.html for information about steroids and weight gain.

It is MOST IMPORTANT if your pet is taking any of these prescribed medications that you do not give him/her food containing salt. - Do not give leftovers from your takeaways, for example, as these are usually high is salt/sodium. - Any salt will cause increased thirst/drinking, and because of the sodium and water retention that salt and water will not get excreted and so your pet will gain weight and have less energy and will be at increased risk of developing diabetes and a multitude of other problems.

Remember obesity in dogs and cats is not caused by overeating; it is caused by fluid retention.

DO NOT FEED YOUR DOG OR CAT FOOD CONTAINING SALT! It is bad for them.

New laws target owners of obese dogs - Telegraph

Extract:

"Pet owners could be prosecuted for overfeeding their animals under new laws announced today.

The Animal Welfare Act is aimed at giving greater protection to pets that do not receive proper care. It will also increase the penalties for those who inflict the most serious neglect or suffering.

And for the first time it will enable the authorities to act against owners before any actual suffering to their animals occurs.

Owners will be legally required to provide a proper diet, a suitable environment and housing and ensure their pets can behave normally and without pain or disease."

What people are not told that when dogs and cats become obese it is because they are eating a salty diet. They should be fed food that does not contain any added salt. Salt is bad for pet dogs and cats. For example, they should not be given any leftover takeaway food. If they are fed food without any salt added, they will lose weight easily.

Brothers convicted over fat dog.

Brothers convicted over fat dog

I expect that the men who own the dog do not know that it is fluid retention that is the trouble and that it is caused by giving the dog food that contains salt. I know that many - very probably most - vets advise people that dogs should not be given salty food, but maybe some of them just haven't happened to mention it. Or maybe the customers simply don't realise how very important it is to protect their pets from salt.

Here is an extract from my website http://www.wildeaboutsteroids.co.uk/:

"Overweight Pets

If you have an overweight pet dog or cat it is because they have been eating food containing added salt. This is bad for them. Give them unsalted food instead. They will lose weight, have more energy and live longer."

The Overweight Dog or Cat and How To Reduce A Dog's Excess Weight.

What I read online today was, "Very simply put, if your pet is overweight it is taking in (eating) more calories than it needs." - This is not the case.

If you have an overweight pet dog or cat it is because they have been eating food containing added salt. This is bad for them. Give them unsalted food instead. They will lose weight, have more energy and live longer. - It could be that you have been feeding them some of the food you or your family eat, and this may well have had salt in it, especially if what you gave them was part of a takeaway or other convenience meal, because these meals have usually had a lot of salt added to them in the cooking. - Salt is particularly damaging to pet dogs and cats because they have a smaller body mass than people and so the salt has a proportionally bigger effect on them. - As well as causing them to become overweight, you could eventually be causing them to become diabetic...)o: - And if they are taking prescribed steroid medication for any reason, then they are at even greater risk! - See http://www.wildeaboutsteroids.co.uk/
