Kentaro Mori of
Liquito sent me this picture (click thumbnail to enlarge) of a very fat dog. He says that he found it on a Japanese website. My hunch would be that there's no photo trickery involved here. It really is a very fat dog. Probably comes from the same household as
Munchkin the Monster Cat.

Never heard that one.
Wait--taurine? The same stuff in my Red Bull? Where do cats naturally get it?
And dogs evolved to eat human garbage, as extensively discussed in a different area here. They've been scavenging around human settlements for at least 50,000 years.
AND YOU KNOW THE OWNERS OF THOSE PETS ARE GOING TO BE BROUGHT BACK IN THE NEXT LIFE VERY VERY OVER WEIGHT PEOPLE !!!!!! I WONDER IF THEY
SOYA SAUCE AND NODDLES
*! How could anyone be so cruel to own such a greeat overblown sasauge of a dog? Poor thing! I wanna recue it!
I believe that in order to be a good dog owner, you have to be a bit hard-hearted. Not abusive mind you, but not so soft that you go to pieces when they give you "the look" (you dog owners will know what I'm talking about).
Just this last Fourth, I saw a couple feeding their cocker spaniel ice cream and wanted to scream at them.
A co-worker once told me about a couple that had a huskey puppy that they fed ice cream, EVERY SINGLE NIGHT. They had to put him down before he was two because he was so sickly from it.
Hopefully there are dog owners out there who realize that food =/= love.

Second, all those health problems, how can you say accuratly that they are caused by being fat. Diebeties is caused when there is more glucose then insulen, iow starch and suger which comes from sweats, grains, and potatoes. Chelesteral gets added into so much food as does so many chemicals which aren't even supposed to be there. And transfats aren't natural, so our body has no clue what to do with it.
And about the whole animals don't have choice or don't get plesure out of food, that is a load of crud. What makes humans so special? I've seen some animals that are so picky that they will only eat one type of food and they can tell if you give them some thing else.
But chances are most of you people are just going to listen to what some scientest says instead of thinking for your self and use common sense.
