Obesity in the US is a continuing problem and not only with the human population,it has now spilled over to our pets. I was pleased when I read an article about pet exercise regimens that might get the owners stimulated to participate. Some of the options are pawlates (Pilates),doga (yoga),and even Barko Polo. There is also an inn on the east coast that offers five day fitness camps for pets at $249 or $59 per day if you are unable to attend all 5 days. The programs are tailored to the individual animal and include aerobic swim sessions,nature trail hikes,pampering massage,and cross training exercise. I didn't find out the strategy they have in place to teach the owners to avoid overfeeding and to continue with the exercise routine,but with any luck they will figure it out!
