Poor fat Daisy! It is crazy how fast weight can sneak up on them and a little is a lot on a chi! And yes, I agree maintenance is super hard...u give a treat and you have thrown it all off! Laurel says she feels Daisy's pain...twenty-fold lmbo. I don't have any great advice because I have 2 I need to get weight off of right now too, not much but it feels like a ton as they already get so little food its hard to figure out what to cut back

Ohhh Daisy--Mari is in the same boat! I hadn't weighed them for a bit & went to weigh her on our kitchen scale (which I can weight the smaller 4 on) but she maxed it out! So she must be 5.5lbs & her correct weight is 4lbs 10-12oz. Oops! Maxie has gotten a hair chunky too but not so much so since I can tell when he's putting on the oz easily so I can cut back for a few days. I think you're right...the LC's make it hard to tell!! I'm just cutting back one spot on the scale with food so instead of her getting 1 5/8 oz of food twice a day it's 1 1/2 twice a day. I'll see how that goes before lowering it any more. But it's hard because I also am doing premades too so is it the same oz as regular raw? ACK...so hard to tell. LOL

I'm doing pre made I also think there is a higher fat content in it where as I use lean cuts myself so it could be that too! She's getting 1oz per meal I can't give less because that's just cruel lol Its like a mouth full poor dog! *sigh* hope she loses it soon
