Sam...My Trevor is 20 1/2 lbs. He was actually 22 lbs. at one time! Let's say he's a BIG guy! Well, I put him on IAMS Less Active and nothing else. That's hard for me because he loves canned food and I like to make him happy.

You could try adding a puppy to your household. That might help! The reason I say that is we adopted a standard poodle puppy and Trevor has never been more active! He plays a lot with the puppy and is not so much of a "couch potato" (actually he was more of a "window potato") and also I have a baby gate across the kitchen which he used to need to go over with the help of a chair positioned on the other side. I guess he is slowly getting himself into some sort of shape because now he sails over it with the greatest of ease!

By the way, Karen your toy ideas a great!!!
