Morris is almost 2 years old, and about 29-30inches at the shoulder. We took him by the vet's office to weigh him because he hasn't been too interested in his food lately and we were worried he was losing weight. We've always thought he was a little on the small side for a Newfy but the vet has always said that he had a great body condition.
Anyway, the receptionist took one pet of him and said he was getting fat! We were shocked and now are worried! He was 126lbs today. We still think we can feel his ribs pretty good but I guess she thought there was too much fat overlying them. We feed him 5 cups daily of Holistic select which is right within the feeding guidelines.
Anyway.... not sure how much you can get from a picture, but thoughts would be appreciated! (And he is definitely in need of grooming right now!! He could probably lose 5lbs of fur!)
He only gets ice cream on very special occasions, I promise!!
