Just got home from the vet, Mauer most likely has neuropathy in her right front leg. My vet will read up on b12 for that.
Now to the issue. I switched her to a raw diet and since she's been gaining weight. In 2018 she was at 6.8kg and way to fat. She lost weight and got down to 5.2kg at the time of diagnosis. This was in March 2020. Today at the vet's office she was at 7.5kg, she gained 2.3 kilograms in a few months!!!!!
With her leg being what it is, I haven't been pushing her to exercise and move around. Actually I've been carrying her, huge mistake I now realize. I'll stop doing that right away.
She's getting absolutely NO dry food at all, she gets raw before her shots and canned food available always.
I'll try to switch the raw food to a low fat diet.
I'll take her for a walk in my garden in a leash once daily, and I'll get started on fencing it so she and her brother can run freely in a safe environment.
5.5kg is a an ideal weight for her, so we have a heck of a lot of weight to lose!
She doesn't like to play, food won't get her moving. I don't know what else to do?
As safe and as fast as possible.
I'm so disappointed and sad that I've let it go this far. She's not just fat and overweight. She's like REALLY FAT! With her age, diabetes, possible neuropathy and generally her joints... it's sad and discouraging.
Oh my God she is unhealthy fat
I need help getting her down in weight, every tip you have is much appreciated!!!!
