Hi everyone,
We aren't 100% sure yet but Oliver might be going on Science Diet's Metabolic food. Now that his esophagus issues are getting better, coupled with the super hot weather and his inactivity, he has gained some weight. He is now 68 pounds and is almost 3 years old and obviously, we want him to be healthy! (I should note that he comes from a BIG family. His Dad was 65 pounds at 1 1/2 years and his Mom was 60 pounds at 4 years old.) His measurements were taken the other day for it, inputted into the vet's computer and we were given the specifics of how much of the Metabolic food and treats he would be allowed.
My question is: has anyone tried the Metabolic food? Did you have success?
Our vet merely suggested we keep it as as option if Oliver continues to gain weight. We are hoping as soon as it cools down more, he will get back to being more active outdoors and will lose some weight and we won't even have to take this route.
But I am curious if anyone has had their bully on it and if they lost weight, liked the food, seemed full.
Thanks!
