I go by body condition score also pugjomsan. She’s a little puffy on her sides when I look from above. I also can FEEL even a little bit of weight difference when I pick her up . My little Hannah was put to rest last month at 17. As I was trying to get her to eat in her last month it was very hard to not give the other two a little of what she was having. it was also an all day and into the night thing where I wouldn’t be able to sleep unless Hannah ate a little.
So now I’m thinking the weight gain was also from last month of the extra little bits of food all day. I have now cut back on the very little kibble she gets as well as breaking a little more each day off of the patties and nuggets of the freeze dried. Just cutting down all around of her portions along with her cooked food.
My five year old Loli was eating same diet and stays slim. Also told my hubby to only give string beans for treats. When he has a piece of cheese I KNOW he sneaks them some. lol But as I said she is getting LONG walks now and come the winter she will not get as much exercise I’m sure. So need to start now to trim her down.
