ROCK ISLAND, Ill. (KWQC) - A therapy dog from Rock Island with a New Year's resolution to shed some pounds is making strides in her weight loss journey.
TV6 first brought you Bailey's story in January.
The 5-year-old labradoodle has been working out for five weeks now and has lost three and a half pounds.
Bailey's weight gain started at church, where up to eight people would give her treats each service. Vets say three to four dog treats are like humans eating a half a pack of Oreos, so Bailey packed on the pounds.
Her owner, Sharon Cramer, tells TV6 Bailey has become quite the gym rat, hitting the treadmill a few times a week. She has also made many new friends.
Her goal is to lose at least 10 pounds.
Bailey still gets one treat a day after her workout, because it's all about moderation.
