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?
I have been feeding Hill's Science Diet Perfect Weight dry food mixed with their Perfect Weight. Chicken Vegetable Stew (1/3 cup dry, 2 Tbs. Wet, 2x/day). I am thinking of switching to the wet food, which he seems to prefer. If i do, how much should I be feeding him (2 small meals per day)?
My vet Recommend Hill’s prescription diet for for 14lb dog who is overweight. Is there another more affordable option for her ?
My 5 year old Corgi is currently on Hills metabolic prescription food. I want to maybe put him on something that is a more natural dog food. I was looking at Merrick weight management food. Is Merrick just like the Hills diet food?

Is Hills i/d digestive care chicken stew a good food for dogs? I noticed it has some sugar in it - is this ok? I want to use this as a topper on my dogs regular kibble because she has a sensitive system and she loves the taste. She's on Natural balance lid small breed bites currently and doing great.
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 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 am fostering an over weight cat for an animal shelter. He has been put on a special diet by a vet. He started the diet 2 weeks ago, weighing 20.4 lbs. I took him for his first weigh-in yesterday and he has actually GAINED 2 pounds. How can that be? The diet he is on is 3/8 cup Science Diet metabolic diet dry food plus 7/8 of a can of Science Diet metabolic diet canned food. That's his total food intake for the day.
