Ergonomics of the TrimDog Exercise Belt



This video demonstrates the ergonomic design of the TrimDog exercise belt. It will not alter the dog's normal walking gait or hinder respiration in any way. If the TrimDog exercise belt is applied snuggly around the dog's torso it will not slide during walking. Please note the placement of the belt in reference to the dog's limbs. With proper placement, your dog will pay no attention to the belt and will focus more on the walk itself. Now that you have mastered how to properly apply the TrimDog exercise belt, get outside and starting walking. Using the TrimDog exercise belt will allow your dog to burn more calories per walk and allow you to achieve your weight loss goals that much sooner. Walk Less, Lose More.

Overweight? Not Anymore.


Introducing Fate. A Jack Russell who just finished week 5 using the TrimDog Weight Loss System. She went from 13.4 pounds to 11.2 pounds. Quite an accomplishment. Even more impressive, Fate is blind in both eyes. Here's what her mom, Tonya had to say about her extraordinary progress. "Fate is looking so good. I have tried everything to get her to lose weight. Tried walking more, diet changes, etc. She is finally at her ideal weight. She has her waist line back. She hasn't been this size since she was a pup! Thanks so much."

Clinical Trial Update- 1st Weigh-in

As predicted, all dogs who walked with the TrimDog Weight Belt lost more weight than dogs that walked without it. Dog's not using the TrimDog Weight Belt lost 1% of thier bodyweight on the walking program. Dog's who walked with the TrimDog Weight Belt lost 2% of their bodyweight. Please note that the dog's diets were not altered during this time frame. The current leader is "Copper." He is a bassett hound that has lost 2.5% of his bodyweight after only 4 weeks. Before starting the clinical trial he was already walking 7 days a week for 30 minutes. Just adding the TrimDog Weight Belt to his walks allowed him to overcome his weight loss plateau. Looking forward to the next weigh-in and more lost pounds. We also had one dog named Fate who's owner decided to try the entire TrimDog Weight Loss System and altered her diet in addition to using the TrimDog Weight Belt. The result: Fate went from 13.4pds, to 11.2 in 4 weeks. WoW! Go TrimDogs!

Congratulations Max on trimming down from 42.5 to 40.5 pounds in 6 weeks. That is almost a 5% reduction in bodyweight. To put that in perspective for everyone. If you are a 150 pd person, you would have lost approximately 7.5 pounds to equal Max's progress. Max did all this without changing his diet whatsoever. Max just added the TrimDog Exercise Belt to his normal walking regimen and poof. Another TrimDog success story. Way to go Max!

The TrimDog Weight Belt Clinical Trial has Begun



The 12 week TrimDog Weight Belt clinical trial has begun. Under the supervision of Dr. Michele Rohrer and her staff at Atlantic Animal Hospital, a group of overweight dogs and their parents will partake in a study to document the effectiveness of walking with the TrimDog Weight Belt. Monthly updates will be posted to document the trial's progress. Stay tuned for future updates.
