It's Me or the Dog: Fat Dog Slim: How to Have a Healthy, Happy
Pet
This book takes a different direction,
focussing on dog obesity and behavioural
problems based on diet.
It's Me or the Dog: Fat Dog Slim: How to Have a Healthy, Happy
Pet
has been described as "You are What You
Eat" - for dogs!
It's no
wonder that so many dogs have behavioural
problems when you look at what really
goes into a typical can of dog food. Or
why dog obesity is increasing
exponentially when you look at the
sedentary lifestyles so many owners
lead. In her second book, Victoria
tackles the hottest canine subject of
the day and shows how you can have a
happy, fit, healthy dog by giving them
the right food and the right exercise.
Along the way she deals with all sorts
of related behavioural problems - from
food stealing to managing exercise - in
her typically feisty and highly
effective way.
