Let me see your fit dogs!

[Shai]

I have gotten comments (and I admit, stressed a bit myself) about the fact that Gusto is not a roly poly chubby puppy. I rely on my agility friends to keep me in line when I stress about it - he is not skinny, he is just right.

Looks just right to me

Then again, mine looked like this at that age so um I may be biased

Ugh, I'm glad someone has their head on straight! My biggest pet peeve is people who think that labs should be fat...

Mine, too (along with the white Lab thing). I get a lot of comments from "John Q Public" about how tiny Caleb is, yet dog people (trainers, competitors, my vet, etc) are always telling me how nice it is to see a Lab who isn't over weight. Here's all 67 pounds of him at the beginning of the summer.

I wish I was as skinny as my dogs.

I saw a dog the other day I swear I thought was an obese lab. Got closer and it was a cocker spaniel... It was awful.

It's not till you get them wet that you realize Mia is 75% hair.

I'll have to get a new photo of Quinn - we've been pretty lazy the last few weeks but since I've been teaching her to walk on her back legs her thigh muscles have gone crazy.

Im always told my beagle is WAY to skinny and will starve to death lol.

Both of these are like 2 months old lol
Not very clear but you get the idea

Some what see his mucles here in his legs

Blaze you cant tell how fit he is. Unless you get your hands on him.
But here is a cute photo so he isnt left out lol

Is that you Bec? I thought "that looks like Daisy!" then saw the logo at the bottom and relised it was. lol.
great photo!

Quinn is very lean and slender, even though she looks chubby in my sig! For reference, this was taken around the same time. She maintains a pretty steady weight/fitness - I can think of one time she got a little bit more chunky than I would have liked, but it was pretty easy to tone her back up!

She's actually starting to get some more visible muscle now that she's maturing a bit, I guess. She's always been quite fit but hasn't had a lot of bulk to her - like I said, she's very lean, has a very long stride and just lopes around everywhere (vs. Dally who is all about short sprints and tight turns and is a little brick shithouse!).

Keeva looks pretty good, IMO, for being a baby:
