How??

How do you keep a 96 pound black lab "quiet" for a month? No, seriously. I need to know. Our big boy is supposed to be taking it easy to help what we think is cruciate injury. The vet couldn't be for sure because he was not letting her check real easily. So right now we are supposed to be keeping him off of it for a month to see if it starts to get better on its own. If not, he gets sedated and he gets x-rays and then depending on the results, possibly surgery. Unfortunately, he does not like to cooperate with the taking it easy part of this deal. They spend most of their time inside, but as soon as he goes out he runs around like the nut that he is. And yes, we know he is over weight. I have known this for awhile, but Michael hates to hear it. We are working on that...kind of.

How do you put animals on diets? I should be helping Aria slim down, but I don't know how...
