Next Level Super Premium Pet Food Mature Adult Gluten-Free Chicken Dry Dog Food, 50-lb bag

I have two large breed dogs (one is part malamute and husky and the other is part akita and German shepherd). The Akita mix is over 110 pounds and the malamute is over 80 pounds. Both were recently told they need to go on a diet. The malamute mix is over ten years old. They're both in good health but just not as active as they used to be. I feed them diamond naturals (chicken) and picked this brand because the ingredients looked really similar so I didn't think it would cause a lot of stomach upset and they seem like pretty good ingredients. First of all, my dogs had a really easy transition and didn't get sick. Second of all, the kibble size is much larger because it's made for larger dogs. Third of all, the main ingredient is chicken meal rather than muscle. I know there's some contention here, but I tend to believe that a lot of foods add that to make it seem like they're adding a quality ingredient but by weight, it's mostly water. Finally, I wasn't expecting it but my dogs started looking a lot more fit than I figured although they're still acting like I'm starving them. I thought it was my imagination because the ingredients seemed relatively similar. But I checked the makeup of the dog food and it makes sense. This dog food has less fat and more fiber than the one for all ages. It makes sense that would help a senior large breed feel fuller and lose weight a little faster. I was definitely impressed.
