"BEFORE and AFTER"

HEY! I LOVE  a good *BEFORE and AFTER* and here's one!
The photo below is of BLUE at his all time high - 174 lbs.
He and I have been working on getting his weight down.
We had gotten it to 161 lbs. and then hit a plateau.
The scale wouldn't budge.
But as of yesterday, Blue is down to 158 lbs!!!
16 pounds!
SIXTEEN!
Here's another view, you can see he's starting to "dent" in where he used to "round" out!
WaaHoo!!! WE ARE SO HAPPY!!!
(Too bad his "Mom" hasn't had the same luck!)

Good job Blue, good job! I'm working on my little pudgy pup. Vet says she needs to lose 2 pounds which doesn't sound like much but it is when you are all of 11 pounds. You've done a great job with Blue!

He is so cool... congrats on the weight loss too. My Bernard is looking more and more like Blue as he grows.. he has just passed the height of out biggest cattle dog. He is just starting to get his adult teeth.... when do puppies stop growing?

Oh...Blue so beautiful! And Ralphie cracks me up. Maybe Jimmy Chews tummy itches. I know one of my Mom's dogs spends a lot of time going up and down the carpeted steps to the bed - back and forth rubbing her belly on the stairs.
