Casper update and new photos

Post by Shirley Jones »

Casper wants to thank everyone for their support with his weight loss :hello2:

We are trying to lose weight through exercise as more fun than dieting. He is on obesity food from the vet but has tuna, chicken and crispbreads and carrots. He also steals anything he can including Harriet's Easter eggs from last year complete with tin foil! :2015:

Casper is settling more all the time.He will stay in a room when I leave now, until a few days ago he would jump up every time I left the room. poor thing was exhausted as I am always up and down running after kids and their dad!

Ben, 11, is great with him playing ball and taking him on the lead. They are getting a lovely bond.:2821:

Casper is very patient and will be cuddled to death by Harriet, 6. Harriet wants to put him in the kid's bath but mum won't let her. :love6:

He can be very stubborn and will drop to the floor and use his weight if he does not want to move. Casper is not supposed to go upstairs but if I do not get up first thing he runs upstairs and jumps on the bed much to the kids delight and then there are group cuddles! :2077:

Molly says he is adorable and when he jumps on the bed we don't mind :1956:

The kids and their friends love taking him to the forest where he wallows in every muddy puddle or ditch, fortunately there is a clean pond near the car park where he swims and comes out yellow again. Kids find him hilarious. :1966:

If he comes on the school run the children gather round and the next thing he is upside down paws up and legs akimbo ready for his tummy tickled. He is such a big softie! :1967:

Well done Casper on your weight loss, your photos are wonderful, what a gorgeous boy you are. My dog George is a big lab, not fat just big he weighs around the 40 kg mark and the vet thinks this is just right. I know Lins, Molly, is also a big girl at I think 43 kg and they are as fit as fleas and don't seem to carry any excess. Obviously it depends on how tall etc Casper is, I couldn't really tell as there's no baked bean tins :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Well done Casper on the weight loss. You look adorable and cuddly.

Joan is correct in saying Molly is 43kg. George is also a big lad weighing in at 40kg, but neither of them have an ounce of f*t on them (don't like to use rude words
on here :1967: )

Lovely piccys and update. Thanks for sharing.
