This is the only food that keeps my dog at a healthy weight that's not a prescription food. After trying a few diet foods with no success, my dog finally lost weight well on the Royal Canin prescription weight loss diet. Once he was at a good weight, we switched to Hills perfect weight as a maintenance diet as prescription diets can be pretty pricey. Unfortunately, he started gaining weight back fairly quickly. So we switched him to this hoping it would work but cost less than the prescription version, and thankfully the weight came back off. So he'll be staying on this from now on. And he loves it. Granted he is a chow hound and not super picky, but my other dogs are always trying to steal some from his bowl so it must be pretty tasty. I wish it came in a mid size bag as the bigger bag takes him a while to go through, and I worry it will get stale. But the smaller bag is too small. A 7ish pound bag would be a nice option. Regardless, I would certainly recommend this food for any chubby dogs out there particularly for ones that other diet foods didn't work well for.

Lucky needs to be on a litter calorie intake. This gives him a little more bulk and I supplement with fresh carrots, green beans, cucumbers and little pieces of fresh boiled unseasoned chicken. He literally. dances towards his bowl before he eats. He loves it!

Why a mailed-in paper receipt is needed in 2026 defies logic

The vet has a long standing relationship with Chewy and even they had never heard of this requirement before
