Last week we introduced you to Obie the obese dachshund. These picture are from Obie’s Facebook account from 2 years ago when he weighed in at a whopping 77 lbs!

Obie’s former owners were an elderly couple in poor health who loved their dog, but sadly, were unaware of the harm they were causing him by constantly over-feeding him and not allowing him to exercise. Eventually, a relative of the couple stepped in, and Obie was given to Nora Vanatta, a certified veterinary technician with a degree in animal science. Nora wasted no time getting Obie on a diet and made it her mission to help him get back to his healthy, energetic self. After about a year on a carefully tailored diet and exercise plan, Obie was ready to show off his new beach body! Take a look at Obie now!
