Dog weighing a whopping 144 pounds can barely get out of car after arriving at fat camp
Meet Jabba the Mutt.
An obese dog weighing more than 140 pounds was checked into fat camp — but the husky hound was so gargantuan that he could barely get out of the car, as seen in a viral clip.
The plus-size pooch, named Misha, is a former guard dog who had been charged with protecting a parking garage in Bryansk, Russia, Newsflash reported.
At the time, he weighed a modest 55 pounds.

The problems started, however, after his owners abandoned him, and two women started feeding him by lobbing scraps of food over the fence of his car park.
On his new diet, the would-be ham’s best friend ballooned to over 144 pounds, effectively turning into a chunk-yard dog.
Eventually, the car park got a new owner, which meant Misha needed to go elsewhere. However, the corpulent canine was so rotund that he physically couldn’t move.

The roly-poly pet was subsequently transferred to a pet rehabilitation center so he could shed the excess pounds and locomote properly again.

After some coaxing and pulling, the chunky dog eventually manages to vacate the vehicle, after which he is escorted into the flab-fighting facility.
Misha is currently under the care of a resident of Bryansk who carefully monitors his diet while volunteers take him in for regular medical checkups.
Losing weight has been an uphill battle for the doughy doggo, who also reportedly suffers from diabetes, according to Newsflash.
Carers are concerned because he is not eating and gets poor sleep.
The good news is that Misha is moving much better and loves walking with his new caretakers.
Here’s hoping that he fares better than a cat compatriot named Crumbs, a 38-pound tubby tabby that tragically passed away just weeks after being admitted to fat camp.
At one point, the fat feline attempted to flee the facility but got trapped in a shoe rack.
Meet Max, a lovable golden retriever who tips the scales at a whopping 144 pounds. After years of overindulging in treats and skipping out on exercise, Max’s owners knew it was time for a change. So they enrolled him in a doggy fat camp to help shed the excess weight and get him back to a healthy size.
But when Max arrived at the camp, it quickly became clear just how much his weight was affecting him. As his owners opened the car door, Max struggled to heave his heavy body out of the vehicle. His breathing was labored and he could barely lift himself up. It was a heartbreaking sight to see.
With the help of the camp’s dedicated staff and a strict diet and exercise regimen, Max is slowly but surely making progress. He’s already lost a few pounds and is starting to move around more easily. His owners are hopeful that with continued effort and support, Max will be back to his old self in no time.
Max’s story serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of maintaining a healthy weight for our furry friends. Let’s all do our part to keep our pets happy, healthy, and active.
