I'm surprised that on a special diet that Gucci gained weight. It's probably a good thing that the doctor's checking on her thyroid. I haven't had to worry about Reuger's weight. He's around 5 1/2 to 6 lbs. I hope that it's just a case of over eating.

I hope it's not a health problem Gina! Maybe get her a treadmill or get her some more exercise somehow. I know it's cold now, but maybe on the warm days. I don't like walking on the treadmill as much as walking down the road so I'm looking forward to taking mine for walks.

You did good by having bloodwork done Gina, it could be a metabolic problem, smell her breath, if her teeth and gums are in good shape, there should be no smell, if it does, i could be thyroid, but better catch it now... than later.
Big hugs, thinking of you both.

Poor little Gucci! I hope it's just a winter/dietary thing. What do you feed her?
I hope she doesn't have to give up foods she loves. Max is stocky. He's 10 pounds, maybe more now. My vet said he wasn't fat though. Annie has stinky breath. Should I take her to the vet Mandy?

Judy no, my guess is that Annie is busy teething
 When the adult teeth come through they tend to smell a little. I wouldnt panic just yet. I am known for hammering on cleaning their teeth daily, so here i go again, make it routine to brush their teeth everyday, and give them nylabone's to chew. When they get older they tend to lose teeth, and gums become infected which causes serious health problems. Save yourself and your pet lots of hearthache.

Aww, poor Gucci. I hope she's just been eating too much and there aren't any other problems. Thank goodness she has such a good mommy looking out for her!
