Many pet parents think that having their fur-babies gain a few more extra pounds is okay, but again, it is not, as it can cause major (and even lifetime) health problems in their pets.

To prevent or recover from obesity, here are the top things you can do:

Consult your vet. Your vet knows best how much weight your dog should maintain or should lose to avoid dog obesity. Go in for regular checkups to keep track of your dog's weight. Your vet will also prescribe diet and lifestyle plans for your fur-baby.

Provide a high-quality diet, served in proper portions. Diet contributes greatly to dog obesity that's why you should make sure to give only your fur-baby scheduled meal times and with a controlled, high-quality diet with lesser calories.

Stay active and exercise. Exercise is very important in keeping your dog fit and healthy. It's not okay that your dog eats too much and does not get enough exercise.

• Walking allows the two of you to bond while getting some fresh air.
• Swimming can build muscles and burn calories without hurting your fur-baby's joints.
• Playing fetch is great and will raise fitness levels in your fur-baby.
