moggy Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Sophie is very overweight, 4 kilos. I have halved her food and she is getting lots of exercise since we got our second Chi on Sunday, but she usually has one Purina Chewy Stick per day. She loves them and if figure it is good for her teeth, all the chewing. Does anyone know if this is a "fatty" treat? There is no indication on the box as to how much fat etc. is in them. Advice please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puggy_puggy Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Wow 4kg is very overweight for a little Chi. Do you have a listing of the ingredients? I would presume that it has alot of fat in it but appart from fat and un needed carbs it probably has many artificial colouings and flavourings. Why not give her a lump of carrot or some other raw veggie. I am sure she will enjoy veggies just as much and it will not only have the teeth benefits but not contain nearly as many calories as the processed chew sticks.
