Just like the human obesity epidemic, over 55% of the pet population is overweight. Even a little extra weight can impact the pet's quality of life and relationship with family because that extra weight can reduce play time, impact mobility and affect the lifelong general health of your dog. Hill's nutritionists & veterinarians developed Prescription Diet Metabolic Weight + j/d clinical nutrition specially formulated to support your pet's weight management and joint health. In fact, Metabolic Weight + j/d is clinically proven nutrition to help dogs naturally lose weight by activating their metabolism and improve mobility in as little as 21 days. This dry food has an irresistible chicken flavor that your dog will love.

I recently asked how I can help Minnie loose weight because she is 13 pounds, and my response was to put her on a Science Diet metabolic weight management diet. My responder said it had good outcomes with his previous patients, but was he talking about the Hill’s Prescription Diet Metabolic Weight Management Dog Food? And if it is, is there a specific flavor that is best to use for her weight loss plan? Also, I live in Arizona — with terrible heat. I was told to walk her 3-4 times a day. Can I?
My vet Recommend Hill’s prescription diet for for 14lb dog who is overweight. Is there another more affordable option for her ?
We are trying to get my dog to lose weight and they have recommended science hill, what type of their food would be better? Light, perfect weight or is there any other? A lot of fat we would like to burn! TIA
The vet prescribed Duke Hills weight loss and mobility food because he is significantly overweight (10 year old chihuahua pug mix) I know I’m supposed to feed an amount of food based on his ideal weight but the vet didn’t tell me how much he should weigh.

My 10 yr old lab recently was diagnosed with diabetes. She absolutely refuses the hills prescription weighty-mobility she was put on. After 4 days hospital, they sent he4 home in hopes she would begin to eat. After 4 days of doing everything I could think of to get enough food on board to given her insulin, I gave up. I cooked some homemade bone broth, rice, and ground venison. She gets a cup morning and night of the combined food. Any recommendations on a better food?
I have an 8 year old female Min Pin / Rat Terrier mix who is about 6 lbs over weight. She’s currently on Hills Science Diet Youthful Vitality, but her vet said she should be on a grain less low calorie food. What do you suggest? I’d like to keep it in the Hills line if possible, unless they don’t have that kind of option. Thank you.
My terrier mix (DNA pic attached) turns 1 today (estimated birth date-she's a rescue). I feed her Hills Science Diet large breed puppy formula-I would like to transition her to a new food. She is mildly overweight in which she is active but her hips are probably not as defined as they should be. She currently weighs 68Ibs. I would like to transition her to Taste of the Wild Salmon. She goes on x4 25 min walks a day. Is this a good food to help her maintain a healthy weight and be active? Thanks!
BEST DOG FOOD FOR LOSEING WEIGHT
What else can I add to supplement my Dog's diet? He's just had the Bladder surgery but ongoing monthly costs for a 35kg dog on other than Hills Prescription u/d diet (375kg.) dry ^ Hills UD 375 cans (I've purchased a month's worth) is VERY expensive on an ongoing basis.Thank you
Hi I have an 11 year old and a 2 year old chihuahua/terrier. My 11 year old is on a prescription diet dog food Hills science diet w/d. I was looking for a dog food that both my dogs can eat so I’m not constantly trying to keep them away from each other’s food, that will benefit my 11 yr olds weight and joints, but that will also be beneficial to my 2 yr old. Is there any such food?
My 13 yr old male Shih Tzu weight is at 28.6 lbs. What diet food would you reccomend I put him on? Tnx
