Pup wins food in competition

Posted : 09-08-2007

An eight-month-old puppy called Bohdi is the lucky recipient of a prize which will see it given £500 worth of food.

The German Pointer was awarded the winnings after its owner successfully answered a series of questions as part of a competition, reports the Exmouth Journal.

Veterinary nurse Gilly Bright won the animal-related quiz organised by her pet insurance provider Pet Protect.

And Bohdi will now be able to tuck into the grub, which Ms Bright said includes his favourite foods.

"Bohdi is always on the go and growing fast, which means he certainly has a healthy appetite," she added. "He also only settles for the very best."

Although providing a balanced diet is essential for the health of all pets, it may also be necessary to limit treats and prevent a furry friend getting fat.

Yesterday saw research released by the University of Edinburgh, which found that one in 230 cats in the UK has a high risk of becoming diabetic due to their obesity.
