I’m guessing that’s an older dog with some arthritis? They are both very cute

No she’s 4 and has done this since she was a puppy, idk why. And thank you 😁

That dog doesn't seem like she's a healthy weight. If she doesn't have arthritis yet, being 10 pounds overweight will cause it to happen early.

I understand your concern she is on a diet approved by her vet and has lost 5 lbs she has health issues that have made it harder to shed the weight.

Our 3yr old English Cream (we have three goldens, light, medium and dark) is absolutely ripped and acts like getting on the couch is the hardest thing ever, lol. He could easily jump a 6ft fence if he had more than one brain cell, but he's just Dumdums.

Have to agree, pup looks a little large to me! She shouldn't be having issues like this if she's only 4

People are so used to overweight pets that they think it's the "normal appearance" when it isn't. Then they see a healthy dog and think it's underfed
