Camps to Help My Dog Lose Weight
Just as obesity must be fought by humans, their canine companions often fall victim to the same problem. As a result, new businesses that board dogs while the animals experience programs aimed at weight loss and wellness are gaining in popularity, according to the Dog Channel website. Though the eating and exercise regimens may be tough, the programs strive for a balance between work and leisure. Some of them even offer massages and other pampering services.
