How to help Labrador to eat food slowly, without wanting more and more after meal?


Everybody knows that Labradors love to eat. Even after meal time many times they want to eat more and more. I got Labrador to my self and sometimes it is very difficult to not give to her something else after her dinner... she cries and bark for more food very often. I love her so i m giving her bit more food and treats.  but i cant do this anymore .A few months ago i noticed that she put lots of weight on:( and it was very VERY difficult to help her to lose this whole  weight.. i went to Vet  and she checked my Bianca over. She seems was fine with any other things, so Vet told me to change the dogs food and make her "move " bit more. It was very hard work for me and my loving dog Bianca. Week after week she was loosing some weight. So i was very happy, Vet was happy and of course my Lab was happy as well!:) But it was very hard for me  to fit " busy -active" plan for one of my dogs during my  already busy day.  So to make everything working i bought treadmill,  so Bianca could run on it in my house and i could do my wife-mum things , and then i found very good wet dogs food (i am still using now: each tray contains 60%of meat, brown rice and vegetables - this food match my dog perfectly- she is pooing less, her coat is very shinny and healthy)and i bought great active feeder for a dogs. This thing is amazing, because my always hungry labrador started to eat her meals a lot slower than she used to eat . Instead of her 3 minutes of her dinner, she started to eat the same amount of food for 20-25minutes! So she stopped to please me for more food after her meal time.
Now my Bianca is very happy, she finally lost her unwanted weight and she became to be more active,  she actually act like a puppy ! :)
So please be aware how easly and quick you can make your dog  unhappy when your loving dog  will put to much weight after extra treats or more food .. it could turn to bad illness in the future and then will be too late., i was lucky that i notice everything quite in time xx
