8:07 The dog trainer said he was concerned that the dog might be the kind of furry kid for whom losing weight was difficult. 😄 If increased exercise , nutritious diet and portion control were not enough to help this dog achieve its ideal weight, the owner could also consider underwater treadmill - sometimes also called hydrotherapy. An underwater treadmill increases exercise level by increasing resistance, allowing the dog to burn more calories. Besides weight management, hydrotherapy also has the benefit of helping the dog regulate its body temperature when exercising if the weather is cold, making it ideal for dogs of all age to maintain their exercise level, regardless of the season. Now that the most urgent problem - the dog's phobias of stairs - had been solved, I wish that this dog and its owner will live happily ever after! 😄
