If he is the only dog you have, you can feed him small amounts of food spread apart throughout the day, like hours apart. Try to get advice from your veterinarian. You should probably get the veterinarian to examine him first. There may be something that needs to be done, instead.

One main reason for obesity in dogs is hypothyroidism. I would recommend having a thyroid pannel run at your vet's office. Other signs of hypothyroidism include lethargy, hair loss, or a dulling coat.

If you are looking for a way to have your dog loose weight it takes more then just exercise. Try feeding them a dog food that is for healthy weight or weight loss. And keep away from table scraps!!!
