Man's best friend is being overfed to an early grave. The noble descendants of wolves can no longer hunt for themselves — but they'll beg their way into obesity if we let them. This short documentary gives an informative and entertaining look at what our dogs actually need, and how we can be dog's best friend right back.

This film is the companion piece to National No Fat Dogs Day, an annual public-health and animal-welfare observance founded by Seize The Day Media Inc., a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
