Every dog is different, so how do you know if they are underweight or overweight? Here we have some helpful tips to check if your pooch is a healthy weight.
Much like us humans, dogs vary in size, metabolism and weight. This is why there is no specific 'healthy weight' guide to apply to all dogs. You can find the average weight of certain breeds online however, remember this is just the average and the above applies.
