Flabby belly...

[Smudge's-mommy]

I've noticed recently that one of our puddies has a very saggy belly.

She's never been fat, never had a litter, is spayed and now about 8 years old (we think).

But lately she's looking like she's just given birth to a litter and not got her shape back yet!

Is this just what happens as they get older? Sorry if this is a stupid question! She seems happy and healthy in herself but thought I'd better check!

Is there anything I can do to get rid of it, or is it nothing to worry about?

Here are two links to discussions we have had about saggy tums before.......it appears to be quite common and nothing to worry about;)

My Rosie is 9 and her belly almost touches the ground in places:lol: She is not overfed, is spayed and has never had kittens.

4 of mine have the same thing,none of them are overweight, so wouldn't worry about it..

Not to worry about; happens as they get older. Look at my Welcome graphic, you can clearly see Leia's saggy tummy...makes her look fat, but she isn't!
