10. SEEK ADVICE FROM AN EXPERT OR A VET

Before you put your pet on a weight loss plan, it is important to get your dog fully diagnosed by a vet. Your vet can determine what your dog's ideal weight should be and rule out any underlying health issues that may be causing your dog's obesity. (Vetstreet)

In number 4 they say to look at the bag of food for the amount to feed. I looked at my dogs food and his weight and they suggested 7-8 cups a day. I give my dog 3 and he still has a little bit of a weight problem so I don't think that is the best measure. The food companies want to sell Food so they hope you use too much so you can buy more.
