Surprisingly, no. Anatolians tend to be "easy keepers", and an adult Anatolian will eat between 40 to 60 pounds of premium quality dog chow a month.

It is important that your child have routine check-ups to monitor her or his growth and development. See similar questions...

There is a bug in XView 3.0 (fixed in 3.0.1 and higher) that causes the library to lose a little bit of memory whenever an image is destroyed. Unfortunately, this happens twice a second while the About popup is displayed. If the About popup is left up overnight, the program can get bigger than you might expect. WorkMan doesn't update the About popup unless it's actually displayed onscreen, so unpin (dismiss) it when you're not using it and the program will stop growing. See similar questions...
