The elephant men were a lot thinner back then. I know you all ate and drank good. How did you do it? Not an ounce of fat on anyone.

Admitly this ain't a difficult trick, but this guy had been beating the hell out of all the zoo personal. I was just trying to keep him busy and make him tired. He was so fat and soft his hind leg stand could only be achieved with the aid of a steel pipe that provided the shade for the encloser.

Gary you mentioned the best way to keep an animal healthy, happy and out of trouble. I always tell clients to give their pets at least 30 minutes ,twice a day of active play, train time. One on one. They are surprised at the difference it makes in their pets. Works for kids too. Just don't over do it. 30 minutes goes so fast when you are having fun.
