Are we making our pets fat and not realising it? The Irish Blue Cross is warning there is a hidden obesity crisis that may be shortening your pet's lifespan. 46% weigh their pets or not at all & 80% feed them treats or human food daily. @SeanMoncrieff @NewstalkFM @IrishBlueCross

After losing her previous dog, Margaret felt lost and lonely without a companion by her side. 💔 Then Petra came along and we turned things around to help them find happiness together. Now, the wonderful bond between them is clear to see! #OurPetStories
