Abstract

Obesity adds great stress to obese dogs, as well as the veterinary health-care system. Sleeve
gastrectomy is one of the most effective treatments for obesity and its comorbidities. Sixteen
obese dogs were recruited into the study. The aim of this study was to evaluate sleeve
gastrectomy as a bariatric intervention for obese dogs by estimating body weight, cholesterol,
triglyceride, blood glucose, and insulin levels. Postoperatively, we compare the body weight,
cholesterol, triglycerides, blood glucose, and insulin with a fixed average test value. Sixteen
obese dogs were subjected to open sleeve gastrectomy. Estimated body weight, cholesterol,
triglycerides, blood glucose, and insulin levels in the obese dogs at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11,
12, 13, and 14 weeks after the operation There was a very prominent decrease in average body
weight, cholesterol, triglyceride, blood glucose, and insulin levels, with statistically significant
differences at a significant level (.05) after operation when compared with fixed test average
values. After the operation, it was evident that all the variables had decreased and had been
corrected for the better.
