Hi Carolyn,
Hopefully you can get Dutchess to lose those last pesky pounds. I had to chuckle because Harley has become quite the porker over the last few months and I know how you feel about cutting food. He cries like I am killing him if I don't feed the full can. It's like he knows that there is less food.
Good luck to Dutchess in her weight loss fight.
