Did you vow to squeeze into your skinny jeans as part of your New Year’s resolution? But what about your pets? Can they fit into their skinny jeans, too?

Over 54 million overweight cats and dogs in the United States aare in need of shedding a few pounds for their health’s sake. Today, to help America’s beloved pets start their path to a healthier lifestyle, the American Veterinary Medical Association launched the 2008 PetFit Challenge with a pop up pet health and fitness centre at the Hollywood and Highlands in Los Angeles.

As part of this challenge, celebrity fitness guru Gunnar Peterson along with the first participant, Las Vegas beauty Molly Sims, and her two dogs, Chloe and Poepette, pledged to help America’s pets lose 50 million pounds in 2008 — one of the biggest overall weight-loss challenges in America.

    She has been looking very pretty lately, and this is a good cause to stump for. I’ve seen many overweight pets in the area belonging to owners who mostly mean well but over-indulge their pets… they don’t realize that it can lead to various health problems and complications.

    My father is unfortunately one of those people who kills his pets with kindness…. you just can’t tell some people that people-food is BAD BAD BAD for animals, and if you are going to feed them people food, it must be very specific recipes so it’s digestible and good for them. He even tries feeding his CAT people food, and she HATES it, but he keeps trying…. why do people do this to their animals??? It’s most definitely a form of cruelty.

    Molly looks gorgeous here, I love her hair like this. She has always looked pretty fantastic to me though. These little pups are adorable because they remind me of one of my own. My dogs are pretty spoiled and I know exactly where your dad is coming from Shell, but you have to draw the line someone and realise that you aren’t actually doing your pet a favor by feeding them too much. I actually bake doggie cakes for my dogs on their birthdays and they are nice and healthy and the pups love them haahah how pathetic do I sound. This is a great campaign though that I don’t think a lot of people think about sometimes.

    50 million pounds of pet weight loss in 2008 is an awesome goal! If you’re curious about whether your own dog might need to lose a few pounds, check out the BARC tool (Body Assessment Rating for Canines) provided by The National Canine Weight Check, taking place this February. http://www.stopcanineobesity.com/barc.htm Go Molly!
