A,B,C,D Correct answer
Explanation

Dietary risk factors for obesity include feeding excessive treats (exceeding 10% of daily energy requirements), which unbalances the diet, and failing to measure food accurately using a gram scale. Ad-libitum (free-choice) feeding and "diet drift," where owners gradually increase portion sizes or add extra table scraps over time, also contribute significantly to excessive caloric intake.
