Today one of my good clients brought in her dog that really struggles with weight loss. Translation: My client struggles with not feeding pounds of treats to her dog. Today, when the dog stepped onto the scale, she had lost one pound. On a 15 pound dog, that is a big deal. We were all very happy for her.
My customer's reaction however, really made me laugh.
"One pound!?" " That's great!!" "I'm going to go home and have a beer".
My client is in her 70's and it was 11 AM. She knows how to celebrate, wish I could've joined her.
That's sweet! One of my agility classmates does the weigh-in for all her dogs on our class day so she reports how many ounces they've lost in their Biggest Loser competition between her Havs :)
ReplyDelete<3. Great celebration!
ReplyDeleteOh. Doggie weigh-ins for agility class.
ReplyDeleteThere's an idea.
Too bad the agility class where I assist the trainer is just for fun. If these people were serious about having their dogs compete I would totally be on them to drop the pounds off their dogs.
I call those dogs 'well loved' but it breaks my heart to think about how all that 'love' is slowly wearing them out and killing them early.
People!
