Fat Bob is a Labrador that is overweight.  He was taken away from his owner because he weighed 141 pounds.  His owner fed him four cans of dog food and fish dinners every day.  The new owners said when they first got him he couldn't walk from the car to the front door.  Now he has lost 50 pounds through diet and exercise.  His previous owner was convicted of causing unnecessary suffering.  It is very important to keep your animal at a healthy weight.
