Australia's fattest dog put on diet

Samson, a black labrador retriever, weighs-in at a very tubby 13.3 stone - twice his normal weight.


His owners admit that an unhealthy diet of burgers, pizza and pies has turned their pet into a couch potato that can hardly fit in his own kennel.

Samson is now working with vets in Melbourne who have put him on a strict diet to help the podgy canine shed some weight.

"He's getting two feeds a day of a specific veterinary prescription diet that provides all the nutrition that he needs without the calorie content," said vet Amber Lavery.
