When switching your dog’s diet, we recommend transitioning from the current diet to our Fat Dogs® Formula over a 10 day period. Replace 10% of the current diet with our Fat Dogs® Low Calorie Dry Dog Food each day until they are fully transitioned. If you do not have any of your current formula to mix, reduce the amount of Fat Dogs® Formula fed for the first few days, feeding smaller more frequent meals and increase over time. Do not free feed.

Seeing some progress
By KSKathy on Sep 7, 2021
I'm finally seeing some indent on my fat little guy! He doesn't so much look like a furry sausage anymore but still overweight. Not sure what ideal weight for him is but sticking with this until I can feel his ribs without having to poke him. He's still a puppy and came into a house with 2 senior picky eaters and got up to around 35 pounds. Tried the really expensive diet type but really didn't see much difference even after 2 or 3 bags - can't remember which. Good friend with lots of animal training told me "1/3 cup salmon based dry food once a day" but I felt my guy would just eat the house out of hunger. He loves this food - okay, any food - and I use a slow feeder bowl and we're on I'm finally seeing some indent on my fat little guy!

He's a Schnauzer pug mix looking more Schnauzer but with an overbite - adorable!! Knowing potential health issues of both his breeds and overweight dogs, I'm looking to get him to a better weight but want him happy at the same time. I really believe this food is going to get us there. Would recommend for anyone wanting a slow steady weight loss for their fur baby. … more

Pembroke Corgi Loves
By Daisy on Aug 9, 2021
I have been with Chewy for over 4 years and love their service. I even order my dogs meds from them as well. As for this food, my corgi can be be a very picky eater and she loves this food. She has put on some “quarantine” weight over last year and I just can’t walk her as much since I just had hip replacement surgery. But in two weeks her harness is fitting loosely and her weight in her hips have gone down. So I will keep her on this food until she gets bored of it:)

Fat Dog Food
By Nikki on Sep 1, 2021
Nikki is Basset/Doxie mix. Took her to the Vet for her yearly. She weighed 45 lbs so I put her on this dog food and she is now 37lbs. In 2 month period. I want her to get down to 30lbs. I feed her 2 cups a day. She loves it. She gets carrots, blueberries and strawberries as treats.

spelling change for this food
By sadie on Sep 8, 2021
Since my dog needs to lose some weight I wish this dog food was not named Fat Dog. I really hate body shaming my sweet girl. It would be better if they change the spelling of Fat to PHAT. Just a thought.

It definitely works!
By alexandluciesmom on Jul 6, 2021
We adopted a rescue dog on March 10, 2021. She was 96 lbs at the time, and when I took her to the vet, I was told that she should be around 75. So we embarked on a journey of proper diet and exercise for our Miss Daisy, which included this food. Four months later, she's down to 85 lbs. We still have a bit more to go, but this food is working.

Weight loss
By Stick on Jul 26, 2021
Natural Balance Fat Dog works. Great results in the first two weeks. I've tried two well known brands with no real results. The price difference is well worth it if you want a dog food that your dog will eat and lose weight.

CHEWY IS 100!
By Danielle on Jun 1, 2021
This product is good. It gives our girls sensitive stomach less gas and discomfort. She digests well. Weight has maintained well. She is happy. Mostly, I wanted to write this review for Chewy's EXCELLENT service. Autoship is AMAZING. So easy to manage, it is discounted and shipping is incredibly FAST! Chewy's customer service is also INCREDIBLE. Quick responses and resolutions with kind and personalized conversation. I highly recommend autoship from Chewy.

The decision is still out
By bcoffelt91 on Jul 1, 2021
It’s still too early to make a decision on the overall product. However my both of my german shepherds love the food, including one who’s very picky. I have noticed less upset stomachs and gas. Will be writing another review in a few weeks.
