Colorado, Denver pets among fattest in nation

Colorado is said to have the fittest residents in the U.S., but it has a secret underbelly. And it is fat and furry.

Denver ranks among the top five cities for most overweight pets, along with Minneapolis, Salt Lake City, Seattle and Boston, according to the State of Pet Health 2012 Report.

In Denver — which comes in fourth-fattest — 24 percent of dogs and 26 percent of cats were overweight or obese in 2011.
