I understand. I should have clarified. It is probably not the kibble so much as the canned food. If I remember correctly you also give that? If so, just cut that out completely or give only a tiny amount (like 1 -2 teaspoons per day). You can stick with Blue Buffalo if you'd like. They have an adult weight management diet that is grain free. ( https://bluebuffalo.com/natural-dog-food/grain-free-blue-freedom/dry-food/freedom-adult-healthy-weight-chicken-recipe/ )

Yes, Solid Gold is a good quality food that has been around for many years and has a good reputation. I think it is often a good idea to rotate protein sources and can help dogs be less picky. If Sky has a sensitive stomach, you should change protein sources gradually over a couple of days to prevent an upset stomach. Good luck! I hope that was helpful. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.

Hello and welcome to Boop by Petco. Firstly, good for you to get on top of Sydney's weight, once you get the weight under control Sydney will feel so much better! There are a few different products made for weight management, some of the best/most effective ones are the prescription diets. I personally like Hill's weight management diet, because the animals feel full but are getting less calories, and it also has joint support products in the food as well. You can try any company weight management food however, as any will work as long as you don't over-feed it. The best trick for this is to get a measuring up that is the amount you need to feed when it is FULL. Therefore you won't be tempted to 'just give a tiny bit more'. Measure the food out, and make sure everyone knows that Sydney is on a diet and doesn't get any treats! Remember, exercise is also important, to protect the knees in the start, try swimming with Sydney, it is great for the muscles and easy on the joints. Regul

Hello. At 7 years of age, I would consider them seniors. You definitely do not want to feed them the SO unless crystals or stones are already present. I think the weight management diet is an excellent choice. Do not worry about feeding a grain free unless they have demonstrated a sensitivity to these ingredients. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.

I would look to foods that are "light" NOT weight management. Science diet has a great over the counter light diet. Also, you could talk to your vet about a prescription diet food which really helps them lose weight while still keeping them full. Keep up the good work on the exercise! I hope this helps!
