Four and a half year old Great Dane, Ruby, is underweight (about 100 pounds). All the vet tests came back negative, but she’s not really gaining weight. She eats between 12-14 cups a day of high quality dog food. Ruby is a little hyperactive. They’ve talked about putting her on Prozac to calm her down and help her gain weight. Is this a good idea? Meanwhile a three month old Japanese Shinwah, Hemi (like the motor), won’t go to the bathroom if he sees another person or dog outside. A three year old short-haired cat named Izzy scratches anything around her open litter box including bath mats, shower curtains and toilet paper

Weight for pets I think is not that a big issue. Well, maybe for others this might be a serious problem. - Brenda Lee Reed
