Maggie is on a diet. A strict one. Has been for two months.
She has not lost an ounce.
Katie weighs 122 pounds, Maggie weighs 94 and should be 80 pounds. Vet says Katie is lovely. Big and lovely and sleek. No diet required.
Yes, they are sisters. Both black with tan points. And the similarity ends there. Different coats, different body structures ( For horse people, Katie is a Trakehner, Maggie is a Quarterhorse). And Maggie now has hip problems which are exacerbated by excess weight.
Katie being the larger gets more dinner. Lots more.
Katie gets two large biscuits in the morning. Maggie gets two "small dog" biscuits. If I could find "toy dog" biscuits she would get those instead.
No plates to lick, no pots to clean, no hand-feeding. (It has been a very difficult few weeks for Mom!)
