Our Life & Times

On Monday when Brian and I picked Aspen up from "Doggie Camp" we got a report from the vet that Aspen needed to go on a prescription diet because she was almost 78 pounds!!!!! WooWee! She should only be between 55-60 pounds. (I feel her pain. I am glad that vet didn't weigh me!) So, now I am trying to find creative ways to get the weight off of my dog. She likes to play ball in the house, but won't play outside. We don't like to walk her much because she is very protective and has gotten into fights with other dogs that came near us. Any suggestions?
