"i realized that i had totally not been paying attention to my dog's health," she explained in an interview.

sweeney is not alone. more than half the dogs in the united states are overweight, according the association for pet 5 prevention, which was founded to combat the problem.

"it's enormously serious. the percentage of obese pets isn't known 6, but it is surely very high and for the same reasons as obesity is high in humans: they eat more food that they can work off," said professor marion nestle, of new york university, and the co-author of a book on pet nutrition.
