What is the difference between Hills Diet dog food?

My veterinarian recommended putting our Golden Retriever on Hills Metabolic Weight Loss Formula to loose weight but it is so expensive. What is the difference between that produce and the other Hills Weight Loss Product?

Asked by: Anonymous

Thank you for your question. The prescription food is formulated for certain medical problems and the over-the-counter food is not designed for those.
