With aqua exercise, portion control, encouragement, and lots of love, Busta has lost an incredible 17 pounds—half his body weight! He is now running and playing around the house and yard and has come so far.
Busta is a sweet, loving little guy with a big “I can do it!” attitude. He enjoys being with his people and other dogs, loves a lap, and definitely doesn’t want to be left out!
