Hello everyone. I have a question about my 7yr old, 90lb black lab/german shepherd. I never worried before about her diet because I was able to get her out for about 6 walks a day for a min of 30 minutes each. She was in good shape. The last 2 years have gotten a little slower for me with her and I only walk her about once a week although she is allowed to run free in our 1 acre yard. Point is, I feed her organic food but she's been gaining weight since I haven't been walking her as much. I know I overfeed...I just keep her bowl full. I'm pretty sure it works out to about 4 or 5 cups of food a day plus table scraps that are alright for her to eat. What should her diet be? Should I be 'finding time' to walk her more often? I've noticed her greying and having a hard time jumping into bed, and last week she limped for a few days but it went away on its own. I'm just afraid of her getting old and me not giving her the life she should have. Any input? Thanks for your time!
