It really worked!
My male Doberman was overweight. He had been on a Hills prescription diet kibble. His Veterinarian suggested that Yuli switch to Metabolic dry kibble. He was on the Metabolic food for almost a year. Last time he was at the Vet, my dog lost a total weight of 28 pounds. The Viet was overwhelmed with glee! Yuli originally weighed 116 and dropped to 88 pounds. My dog is now on Hill's Light 1 to 6. The Vet told me that I gave my dog the ability to grow older than he would have caring all the extra weight.

Great food! Helps with weight reduction & high fiber
I have been feeding Hills for years to my dogs & cats. When I took in a overweight Cocker with food allergies I knew what food was my choice. Not only has she loved the food, which for her in trouble anyway, she feels fuller and has great stools & coat. She seems to feel fuller, not so much begging, she has lost weight and has more energy. Hills is backed by science & research and I trust Hills to give my pets what they need. I have a 17 yr old dog that has eaten Hills his entire life and still has the energy he had when he was 4.

Another prescription food filled with horrible fillers
It would be great if, when you have a dog that needs to be on a low fat diet, that you didn't have to sacrifice feeding them decent, actually good for them ingredients versus just filling them up with cheap/bad fillers. Ingredient list is awful.

Great Results
I changed my long haired dachshund's food back in December 2017 after a vet visit and being told she was overweight; the vet suggested this food for her. Even at the start of the new food, hair personality and physical activity increase tremendously! She has lost 7lbs since December and loves life! I feed her a 1/2 cup twice daily.

Best weight reduction food anywhere
5 years ago my little boston terrier mix breed was severely overweight. My vet recommended Metabolic dry food for her...she went from almost 40 pounds to 28 pounds in less than a month. I will never use anything else for her..and shes 16 years old. I highly recommend Hills food for the wellness of your pet.

Our boy got his boyish physique back!
Our seven year old Staffordshire Terrier suffered an injury that challenged his once very active life. He put on some weight due to his limited mobility. We loved our dog and were aware that he was not able to exercise as he had been doing, and that he had put on some weight, but thought that this would all change as he rehabilitated. It was tough to see him like this. Our veterinarian pointed out the fact that a dog is as at risk as we are when it comes to weight gain. He recommended the Hill's Prescription Diet Metabolic Canine food to assist in keeping him healthy. We did a lot of research and learned everything we could about this food. The ratings were excellent and we were very happy about the future. It took time and dedication, along with a continuing physical therapy regime, but our special boy is now back to his prescribed weight. He is back to his actice self. His doctor was so happy to see him looking trim and looking so handsome with his waistline trim! Thank you for your dedicatioon and ongoing research in the care and feeding of our pets.
