    I have a dog with an insane metabolism too....let me know how those Satin Balls work for ya! I'm not too worried yet since my boy is still under 2 years...
    Glad to hear Ozzy checked out okay! Dr. Jessica sounds like a good match for him...gentle vets can sometimes be hard to come by...


    Many thanks to Roxyluvsme13 & k9krazee for my great new siggy!!

    This is Ozzy's new diet. Same brand as their usual food but even more fat and protien..Acana Extreme I was lucky to even get a bag. The feed store doesn't usually have any in the summer, since most sled dogs would get very fat eating this in the off season! I also bought him a bunch of chewies and all the stuff to make satin balls!

    The local Wiscoy has a homemade variety of them. I will look next time I am there for the recipe. Sequoia loves those which she gets at the Ice Cream socials in August and the ones in the grocery store frozen section. We have had to limit her to one a week to get some weight off her chubby butt. She got herself up to 63 pounds! She should be 50 cause she is large for a husky.

    whoops, somehow I missed this earlier. but I'm really happy that so far it's only a fast metabolism. Eat Ozzy, eat - have another helping! Hope the Satin balls will do the trick. Everyone else there will be howling with jealousy!

    Two week update:

    Ozzy went in for his weekly weigh-in this morning, much to his dismay. I had to carry him into the clinic, but he dragged me right back out once he realized he didn't have to stay today!

    In two weeks, Ozzy has gained 5.5 pounds! He looks much better, his spine doesn't stick out anymore! He's eating an unbelievable amount of food, but apparently that's what he needs. I'd like him to gain a couple more pounds and then I'll have to figure out what he needs to maintain his weight!

    Yay Ozzy!

    Please, if your dog is arthritic look into getting it Elk Velvet Antler. Look up my posts on it, PM me, or look it up on a search engine; but please if you love your dog and want it to live many more years consider this option. I've seen so many posts on here about dogs needlessly suffering. I can't make a new post about EVA every time so this plea is going here. EVA also helps with other ailments such as anemia.

    That's what I like to hear! 5.5 lbs in 2 weeks is great!
