Most pet dogs are too fat

A majority of pet dogs are too fat, according to a report by the Telegraph. A recent study found that 6 out of 10 adult dogs are classified as overweight or obese. A lack of exercise, being fed table scraps and being given too many snacks or treats are three factors for the rise in dog obesity. Researchers also found that dogs were more likely to be overweight if their owners were elderly, poor or if the owners were obese.
