Reply #40: Oops - I meant HyPOthyroidism

[sleepyhead]

That's what I get for trying to post and talk on the phone at the same time! Anyway, 3/4 cup of food doesn't sound like much, so if all else fails, get a thyroid test done. You're right, though - pugs do tend to be couch potatoes and really start to get pudgy faster than other breeds. Try replacing 1/3 of his ration with low-sodium canned green beans (as long as it doesn't make him gassy - nothing worse than a farting pug!).
