My dogs love it! It is healthy and a good brand. I don’t like the name Fat Dog. My dogs are insulted!

The added fiber is making my Bubba have to poop more often. It’s making him uncomfortable because where he went 2-3 times a day now it’s 5-7 times a day and in the middle of the night. We are switching back to his original food.

My dog LOVES this food. I have tried at least 12 different dry foods and spent a small fortune, He would not eat any of it. I found this and the reviews said picky eaters would like it. They Do! Will continue to feed this to my big guy. I have a 96 lb GSD. I highly recommend it.

I adopted a 54# Corgi and this has helped get the weight off for sure. Smells close to the regular NB salmon or chicken my other dog is on. Helped improve weight, coat, digestion, and energy. I like that they pull no punches on the name too. Easy to find it among all the varieties.

The dogs love this food. Vet said they needed to lose weight. It's slowly coming off. Dogs don't know the food is to help them loose weight.

I have a young Rhodesian Ridgeback mix who loves Natural Balance food and sometimes will consume more than she ought. I thought I'd give Fat Dogs a try and it turns out she does like this food as much as the others. Unfortunately, because of all the additional fiber, she began to poop 4 or 5 times a day. Now I mix this with the Natural Balance chicken and rice formula (1:1), and I'm happy to say she's pooping far less. So, should you decide on this food, be prepared with more poop bags!

I tried this food because my dog was overweight and having surgery. I went to Dog Food Advisor and this food is rated 4.5 out of 5 stars for quality. She has lost 6#. We are happy.

I bought this to help my pup shed a few pounds after the vet gave me a stern talking to. I started looking into kibble that would help her lose a bit of weight. I'll preface this by saying that it hasn't been long enough for me to come to the conclusion that it actually helps dogs lose weight, I've only been giving her this food for around 2 almost 3 weeks, but I have noticed various things that do concern me a bit. First of all she's eating much more than she usually does (she's always been the type to eat less than the recommended amount), and at first I thought that it might be because we finally found a food that she absolutely loves but as the days went by we started thinking it might actually I bought this to help my pup shed a few pounds after the vet gave me a stern talking to.

Before putting her on this food she would poop 2 maybe 3 times a day, now with this food she's pooping 5-6 times and the amount each time is a pretty hefty amount which makes me suspect that this food is mostly filler (at least thats what some googling has shown). Another thing that this food has caused her to increase her water intake. Overall this food has me worried, I'm not sure if this is supposed to be occurring since this is my first time buying a diet food for my pup. … more

My Maggie really loves this do food. Good for her and keeps her weight level.

I have found shopping at Chewy for my pets a most rewarding experience. They are always, and I mean ALWAYS, available. They are knowledgable about the products and they are always pleasant. If something isn't quite right, they simply send me a replacement. They have just about everything I need for my dogs, cats and birds. They know how to get it right. It was hard for me to find Fat Dogs and Chewy had it available. They make owning a pet very convenient.
