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 ?

My 2 yo Lab/Ridgeback is 86 lbs yes overweight and has a urine ph of 5. I have her on grain free Taste of the Wild venison/buffalo 2.5 cups daily. Without spending $80.00 for a 17 lb bag of Royal Canin So , what dry food or treatments might you recommend for Rylee?
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 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?
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!
