Bit of a background:
I brought a little miniature from someone who kept him in the backgarden of a terrace house (you can imagine the size of the garden - it was almost non-existant).. He was a little overweight as kept in a shed with only a tiny turnout area with no grass.
So since I've had him I've struggled to keep the weight off but have managed. However, I moved him home (from livery where he kept my previous horse company) as I've got a small paddock of an acre. I've split it into 4 mini-paddocks. The paddock he's been in for the last 3 months is bare with only a ting covering of grass. I feed him a tiny bit of "safe and sound" and added vits and mins to make sure he is getting the right amount. He is exerecised and lunged around 5 times a week (sometimes upto an hours walk with the dogs!).
But he is FAT and I've run out of ideas to keep the weight off. Anyone have any ideas?
The latter photo was taken around 2/3 months ago to give an idea of his size and it has increased slightly since then.
