This option is specifically formulated for overweight or less-active dogs over 50 pounds, with 27 percent protein and 9.5 percent fat. A standard adult formula may have different calorie and fat targets.
How does this Shredded Blend compare with an all-kibble weight-management food?
The main difference is texture: this food combines hard kibble with tender shredded pieces. Nutritional value, portioning, and your dog's acceptance should also guide your choice.
What if I am unsure how many calories my dog should eat each day?
Use the package's feeding guide as a starting point and ask your veterinarian to tailor portions to your dog's body condition, weight, activity, and health needs.
Will my dog need separate treats while eating this food?
Treats should generally account for part of your dog's daily calorie allowance. Ask your veterinarian for guidance on treats and portion adjustments when establishing a weight-management routine.
How should I transition my dog to this weight-management food?
Transition gradually over several days by reducing the previous food and increasing the new food in small steps. A slower seven-day transition can help minimize digestive upset, and your veterinarian can tailor the schedule to your dog.

Begin with the package's feeding guide, then adjust according to your dog's target weight, body condition, age, and activity level. Your veterinarian can help establish an appropriate daily calorie target.
How should I store and serve this dog food?
Keep the bag sealed in a cool, dry place, use clean measuring tools, and serve portions according to the feeding guide and your veterinarian's guidance. Wash the container between uses to help keep the food fresh.

Yes. Its 27 percent protein and 9.5 percent fat provide a protein-to-fat ratio designed to help dogs lose fat while preserving muscle mass as part of a controlled feeding plan.
Is this formula appropriate for every adult large-breed dog?
No. It is specifically intended for overweight or less-active adult large-breed dogs weighing more than 50 pounds. Active adults, puppies, small dogs, and dogs with medical conditions may need different nutrition.

What is the difference between a weight-management dog food and a regular adult dog food?
