Lmao I didn't catch that. But the dogs were mixed. Some fixed some not. None needed any special training for food. Same with my cats

Fixed is such a weird euphemism of the English language. Anyway, I've never had fixed dogs but a vet once told me whole dogs have on average higher metabolism so they're unlikely to become obese if they're just fed kibble.
