by Carlos Portocarrero, WeSeed Writer It's no secret that Americans are overweight, but who knew that our pets were following in our footsteps the whole time? According veterinarians in a Pfizer (PFE) study, 47% of the dogs they treat are obese. You may think they don't need to "look good" if they've already been spayed or neutered, but obesity in pets - like in humans - can cause a host of serious complications like arthritis, bone issues, heart disease, and diabetes. Most experts agree that the problem is simple: too much food and too many calories. Many pet owners like to lavish their furry friends with treats or scraps from the dinner table - not realizing that pets don't know when to say when. The solutions, appropriately enough, mirror our own solutions: eat less and exercise more. But who are we - an overweight people as it is - to get our pets to work out more and cut down on the treats when we can't do it ourselves? Well, it turns out we don't. Drugs to help treat obesity in pets are becoming more and more common. Pfizer, who actually has an animal-health unit, recently released the very first dog obesity drug, Slentrol. Pfizer has also created a way to measure whether or not a dog is overweight called BARC. There are non-medication tips to help keep your pet in shape for those that don't want to go that route, though veterinarians say that owners are rarely able to follow through. The medication route is becoming more and more popular with all kinds of other pet problems. Elly Lilly (LLY) recently released Reconcile, a separation-anxiety drug for dogs that even has a beef flavor to it. Prozac is also being prescribed to tropical birds and parrots to help them deal with depression. How are all these drugs going to get into consumer's hands? Companies like PetMed Express (PETS) are out there and they dedicate themselves exclusively to selling prescription and non-prescription drugs for pets. Are pets doomed to follow in their owner's mistakes when it comes to dealing with health-related problems? If so, companies like PetMed Express will find themselves on the receiving end of a whole lot of love.

There are people who don't walk their dogs very often so I think drugs to help them lose weight may be a good idea.
