Oh my.

I'm going to have to ask some forebearance here, and have readers click on the link above, to see the photograph.  It's incredible, how the primitive let that poor dog go to pot like that.

Obie, then and now

Remember Obie the obese dachshund? Here are pictures of him when Nora first got him and now. He has lost almost 40 lbs!

1. Wow, great work!

He must feel like a whole new dog

2. OMG, what great work getting him in shape.

That could not have been easy! He looks wonderful now, and happier. (That before picture looks like one of the saddest pups on earth.)

From the pics we've seen, I'd say BB has been eating the dogs food.

That story (http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/fat-dachshund-obie-diet-survive-article-1.1156248?localLinksEnabled=false) has been circulating the internets for awhile now. It's not Bainsbane's dog. I believe he belonged to an elderly couple who could no longer care for him. A rescue took poor Obie in and slimmed him down. I have a mini dachshund (looks like my avatar!) and follow all sorts of dachshund facebook and website stuff so I've seen a lot of his pictures. Dachshunds love to eat and are experts at begging with their big adorable eyes it's so hard to resist.

I've got 3 of them, 2 males that look like your avatar, and a long-haired black with brown female, who is 100% sweetheart!

Mine beg by sitting fully upright on their behinds, and seem like they can do it for hours on end.  I feel like I'm surrounded at the dinner table, with one at each side of my chair, and one at my feet!

They are cute, smart, playful, and extremely protective little dogs.

Wow. That is one fat doggie. Must have been living with a poor family that couldn't afford healthy Alpo since that is what you dummies always tell me about the welfare folks that are all fat. I guess they fed it Big Macs and Burritos.   :fuelfire: :fuelfire:

Mine begs like that too! It's completely adorable and so hard to refuse. She's probably the smartest and most entertaining dog I've ever had. They are great pets.
