Call comes after research from Bella & Duke finds only a fifth (22%) of pet owners regularly weigh their pets to check they are healthy

As a result the brand is calling upon pet owners to check their pets weight to avoid an obesity crisis, with the PDSA reporting that up to 65% of the UK's pet dogs are overweight or have obesity.

Earlier this year, Bella & Duke called for clarity on what goes into pet food with clearer packaging to help pet owners make informed decisions and do right by their pets.
