I'm sure Britain has an article about the 65-70% of human beings in the US that could die due to complications from being obese.

Americans really can't fault another country about fat pets. We have those as well as their fat owners.

Obesity in dogs or people is "killing with kindness". We soothe ourselves with food

and think we need to show our love for our dogs with food, too. Of course the dogs respond with

such enthusiasm, we can hardly help ourselves. Speaking as an American. Vi Vi ^ ^ TS
