Simon Tofield, the creator of the Simon's Cat series (previously at Neatorama) has turned his attention to his sister's dog. This video was created for the RSPCA's campaign to fight pet obesity.
There is of course a serious message to this animation. According to leading vets, pet obesity is one of the biggest issues affecting pets’ health and one in three of the UK’s dogs and cats are now overweight. Fat pets can develop serious health problems – including diabetes, arthritis and even organ failure.
The RSPCA has more information, and has even created an online community to help people keep their pets slim and healthy. Link -Thanks, Jayne Carverhill!

I love how well he represents the animals in his cartoons. One of our dachshunds uses all of the same moves as Simon's Sister's Dog when he's begging.

Sometimes I wish my dog would eat more ... we worry that he doesn't get enough sometimes. But he seems happy.

Seeing this made me think of this posting on another blog. Not sure if you had seen it but it's so sad to see!
