| - I have an old lab. He is the type of dog that gives you the look, and he magically suckers you into giving him treats. Dr. K, my vet, politely warned me about the consequences of having an overweight dog, so I started allowing my dog to exercise more. The treats stopped, yet the weight stayed. That last sentence will probably hit a nerve with some women, but I am still talking about my dog. Well, he was put on diet with food that is certified to make him lose weight, medications, and wealth of information for his owners. Dr. K gave us a compassionate lecture how we are not doing our dog any favor. That he is old, and we should give him the dignity to live his last years of his life as pain free as possible. He's excessive weight was simply killing him. What I remember the most about her lecture was how much love, knowledge and respect she has in every word that she said. I have been to other vets and I have never received such service. Dr. K, I applaud you as a vet and praise you as a human being.
