We got recommended this from the vets for my senior medium breed dog to help loose a wee bit of weight to make it better for her arthritic joints. We also got the metobolic treats. Her coat has remained nice glossy too. As I have other dogs I just added this to my auto shipment. So easy!
Bottom Line
Yes, I'd recommend this product to a friend

My dog is absolutely not fussy, she eats anything so palatably wasn’t a problem. I originally started her on this food through our vets recommendation, and saw a massive improvement on her weight and therefore her mobility. Can definitely notice when she’s not eating this food.. had to just feed the weight management one as my vet didn’t have this one in stock (hence buying from pet.co.nz) and she became a little more stiff than usual. Overall I would highly recommend feeding this food for weight loss and joint care, especially if your dog isn’t as active in their elder years. It is more expensive buying here, than at my vets but it’s becoming harder to get on the shelves locally at the moment.
