[QUOTE="donna723, post: 234709, member: 1883"] Kjs, you may want to look at that dog food site. Many of the 'prescription' foods you get at the vet (like Science Diet and Iams) are not even that good! Believe it or not, most vets are not all that knowledgeable about pet foods! They barely touch on it in the veterinary schools and the classes they do get are taught by reps from the pet food companies! The vets push the brands they sell in their office because they get a cut of the profits - not because it's the best food. Many of the better brands sell weight-control formulas and some of the 'senior' formulas promote weight control. Another trick - substitute about a third or a fourth of their regular dry food with frozen (cooked) GREEN BEANS! Just mix them right in with their kibble. The dogs like them, they get lots of nutrients and fiber from them, and they are very low in calories. [/QUOTE]
