The same can be said for our pets. A survey from the Kennel Club has shown that not enough dogs are getting their daily exercise, with one in five dog owners too lazy to take their pets out every day. Recent estimates also show that almost half of all cats and dogs are now obese. And that these numbers are expected to rise in coming years - as more pets live sedentary lifestyles and eat too much food. But if we could change our behaviour, and therefore that of our pets, just a little bit, we could do much to reduce the likelihood of them developing a chronic illness in the first place. By better managing their intake of food and giving them more exercise you can reduce their susceptibility to chronic diseases.
