A gradual transition to a new pet food is important to avoid digestive upset. To transition, mix your pet’s current food with the new food. Over 7 days, gradually decrease the amount of the current pet food while increasing the amount of new pet food. In some cases, your veterinarian may recommend no transition or a shorter transition time.

Chewy rocks!
By Cookie on Apr 29, 2020
I'm so glad to be a Chewy customer, and this difficult time makes that even more terrific. Your service and personnel are outstanding in all ways. I knew that before this time of isolation started, but it's even more obvious now. This product was one I could only get in small bags from my vet, and that required calling a week in advance, then going to their parking lot and phoning for them to bring it out to me--every week-and-a-half or so. With Chewy, a big bag came to my door on time, no hassle, no problem! You guys are always great! Thank you for your excellent care and service in this trying time, and thank you for always caring for our pets and their owners.

My Handsome Boy
By Gmw20 on May 10, 2020
My boy was obese. Very close to being diabetic. The vet said to try this dog food. I have to say this food worked great. Within 6 months he is down to normal weight. He is a very picky eater but with this food no problem. He does a little dance when he knows its feeding time. I would recommend this food to anyone.

Dog Wouldn’t Touch It
By Claire on May 14, 2020
My 3 year old corgi will eat just about anything EXCEPT this food. He hates it. He is losing weight but only because he is eating about 1/2 a cup per day when the recommended amount is more like 3 1/4 cups. The food stinks worse than any other animal food I have been near

Chewy.com employees are great!
By Mommie85122 on Apr 25, 2020
My vet prescribed the food. I have two 10 year old overweight mini Dachshunds. One of them has IVDD so his weight is a major factor. There was some confusion regarding delivery of my order but the Chewy.com employees were super helpful and the problem was resolved quickly and without stress. The order arrived when promised and there were no further problems.

Perfect if your dog is overweight
By RokstarGal on May 6, 2020
This is the only dog food that helps my dog lose weight. Being an overweight lab, with joint issues, he had to lose weight. If we feed him anything other than this dog food, he gains weight and will not lose it. Even if it is for 2 weeks. He is almost at his goal weight. I highly recommend.

chubby cavalier
By demonthecat on Apr 18, 2020
I got this food at the recommendation of my vet when my chubby cavalier reached 29lbs. For a cavalier, this is over-over weight (normal about 15-17lbs). Within a year of this food he lost nicely 6 lbs. It did not change his bowel habits, and his fur looks as beautiful as ever. I do recommend this, but always run this by your vet. It needs prescription.

Acquired taste!
By Debbie on Apr 4, 2020
My vet out Max on a diet! Well, I don't think Max likes this food! Doesn't have the same appetite. Maybe that's how he'll lose the weight! Anyway, hopefully the taste will grow on him. 4 stars because I ran out of food waiting for this to ship and had to go to the vet's office to buy a small bag. So I have a lot of this food.

what a change!
By dawna on Mar 28, 2020
My 3 year old Labrador was lethargic, overweight, and had anxiety. After a month on this food, she is a new dog! Her hips don’t bother her, she’s running all over at the dog park, her coat is silky smooth and she has lost weight. I almost didn’t not buy this because of the price when her vet prescribed it, but I am so glad i did! It’s worth every penny. My girl is so happy now!
