Spunky, а 4-yeаr-оld, spаyed, female mixed-breed dоg, presents tо your clinic. Her owners are concerned about her weight gain over the last four months. In obtaining a history, you learn that there are four people in the house: owners Jen and Brian, a toddler, and a new baby. Jen and Brian have taken to leaving all-purpose dog food out all day, because they realized they had each forgotten to feed Spunky on several occasions since the birth of the baby. Spunky’s exercise is limited to spending time in the fenced yard, rather than the walks she used to enjoy. Spunky spends much of her time indoors, and is quick to eat food the toddler has dropped. On physical examination, Spunky weighs 55 lbs with a BCS of 4/5. Her ideal weight is 45 lbs. All other examination findings were unremarkable. CBC, chemistry, and thyroid hormone levels were also unremarkable.
