What Are the Symptoms of an Obese Dog?

🐶🔥➡️ Who Are The 5 Most Expensive Dog Breeds?

There are many symptoms of an overweight dog. Physical appearance may be the most noticeable symptom of an overweight dog, but other symptoms are less noticeable, such as snoring and slower mobility. These conditions are common among dogs that are overweight.

The best way to determine if your pet is overweight is to check the body condition chart. A healthy weight for a dog should have a well-proportioned body with visible ribs, spine and pelvic bones.

When your dog is overweight, the extra fat in its chest limits the expansion of its lungs. The additional fat in the abdomen pushes against the diaphragm, which separates the chest and abdominal cavity. Because there is less room for the lungs to expand, your dog’s breathing is restricted.

The extra tissue increases the amount of work required to supply oxygen to the rest of the body. Overweight dogs tend to have less stamina and endurance. This is because carrying extra weight requires more effort.

Overweight dogs are more likely to get illnesses. The risk of slipping disc is increased for overweight dogs. They can’t recover as quickly from infection as their lean counterparts. Their weak immune systems make them more susceptible to illnesses.

And if the infection is serious, an obese dog can be more difficult to treat. The cost of treating an overweight dog’s disease can be high. It often requires prescription medication. If you have an overweight dog, you’ll want to monitor its weight regularly.
