TrimDog launches new weight loss product to combat dog obesity.

WILMINGTON, NC, October 20, 2010 (Press-News.org) Ike Kinlaw, an Exercise Physiologist, BS, and developer/founder of TrimDog, utilized proven methods to help people lose weight for over a decade. When Kinlaw's own dog, Lily, was diagnosed as overweight it was only natural that he look toward the same weight loss principles he counseled to humans to benefit his own dog. That's when TrimDog got its start. "The TrimDog Weight Loss System is designed to successfully mirror healthy weight loss systems for humans - a wholesome diet combined with exercise and a more active lifestyle," according to Kinlaw.

The TrimDog Weight Loss System provides assistance to owners for their dogs to safely burn more calories during walks and at rest, while helping them understand the importance of a healthy, well-proportioned diet. The first TrimDog Weight Loss System was introduced to Lily, Kinlaw's best friend, helping her shed all her unnecessary pounds, while living a more active lifestyle.

"The weight loss that Lily demonstrated using the TrimDog weight belt has been remarkable," indicated Dr. Michele Rohrer of Atlantic Animal Hospital, Lily's veterinarian. "She lost almost 20% of her body weight and attained her ideal weight in less than 4 months on the system. She accepted the weight belt very well and has maintained her current weight for two months."

There are several components of the TrimDog Weight Loss System to maximize dog weight loss. The first is the TrimDog weight belt which increases the intensity of each walk to burn more calories during exercise, and adds resistance to stimulate the prime muscles leading to an increase of lean muscle mass and higher metabolism. The System also provides each pet parent with an overview of pet nutrition basics including: portion control, food choices, and healthy treat alternatives to maximize weight loss.

Jennifer Smart, parent of Cocker Spaniel, Miniature Poodle mix, Max, has been utilizing the TrimDog system during each walk for the last six weeks. The result was a healthy period of Max successfully losing nearly 5% of his bodyweight. "I love the TrimDog weight belt," indicates Smart, Max's owner. "Not only does it help to burn a few extra calories, it also gives Max the feeling that he is "working," so he has more purpose on his walks. He gets so excited when he sees the weight belt come out of the closet. It's like he's saying, 'time to go to work," added Smart.
