Excellent weight loss for my spaniel
This formula works wonders for my 9 yo working cocker spaniel. She loses around 500g every 3-4 weeks whilst on the food.

Fantastic really works!
My elderly staffy struggled to loose weight to begin with but once put on this food he has ended up loosing a whole stone so far! He went from 32.9kg to 26.4kg in the 7 months we have had him! Brilliant stuff.

Hills metabolic
Great service fast delivery very happy will use again

So far so good
My dog is a very picky (overweight) eater. We have tried so many foods for her and found ones she like did but even feeding the minimum could not shift excess weight. I was dubious about trying this but she absolutely loves this food and seems less hungry. It’s too early to see results but so far I am happy

My Spinoni Italian
Tried this food to reduce her weight can honestly say It does not work. Kept the amount of food For her prescribed by Hills but she still felt hungry and kept whining for more food. considering the price Hills charge for this food if it worked it could be worth it unfortunate it does not work

Excellent product
My cavalier king Charles put on weight after being sorted but after being on this food dropped 5kgs in 7 months. She still got her dentastix and the metabolic treats that complement the food and was very happy and more energetic. I saw a previous review complained their dog hadn't lost weight after 2weeks on this food. Give it a chance even humans struggle to lose weight in two weeks!!!

My Dog Is Happy With Her New Diet
We had been searching for some time for the right dog food as we found that in Hill’s Science Plan. At first we were apprehensive about size of the food pieces, but my dog loved it and couldn’t get enough. Our dog has a beautiful thick brown coat and is more energetic and is getting down to her correct weight. The health benefits of the ingredients used matches the price. I will be recommending hills to family and friends.

Brilliant
Last year our 9 year old beagle popped his cruciate ligament and underwent TPLO operation. To aid the lengthy recovery it was vital to maintain an ideal weight. This Hills prescription has proved marvellously effective and nine months on he is enjoying the food and maintaining his weight.
An unexpected advantage of this food is that the "poop" is so easy to scoop if you know what I mean

Excellent food. My dog just keep putting weight on..
My puggle female is 10 months old vets put her on this food she was 17kg and she keeps putting on weight. Don't have any doggie treats strictly this food. She does have some fruit and vegetables. Walks and run every single day. I don't know what else to do or what other foods to try..

No luck

Highly recommend
My rescue cocker spaniel Millie was 27kg the day we picked her up from HAWT just over a year ago she was like a barrel couldn't run down the garden without being out of breath. She started on this food and is now 18kg at last weigh in. Shes now healthy happy and full of energy couldn't recommend it more. Itshirts certainly worked for her.

Highly Recommend
In 16 weeks my dog has gone from over 16 kilos to 13.1 , target weight 12 , I was very sceptical but as my vet had recommend this food I thought I would give it a go. We didnt have to gradually introduce the food , although we tried but Archie was eating the Hills and leaving his old food . This food works , an thrilled with the difference in Archie , its given him a new lease of life.

Good food!
Fed this to my overweight Bassett hound and he instantly ate it dry. He tends to be quite fussy about eating his food without wet food so I was surprised to say the least! He gradually lost weight and is now 1kg away from where the vet wants him to be. The only thing I would say is that his coat seemed to be duller on this food but that's the only downside. I would reccommend this food to anyone with a slightly porky pet

Definitely worth the money
Feeding my dog this has given him
His quality of life back and lots of enery, he no longer stops for a break he is on the go, being a mixed breed his stomach is very sensitive, this food however doesn't make his poop runny.
He lost a lot of weight within a few months keeping to nothing but this and cut down on table scraps.
I would like to thank his physio vets for this as his arthritis is now under control without medication

Brilliant does work
Two of my dogs were getting tubby and after using Butchers lean and tasty and also the Hills prescription r/d and not loosing anything decided to try this. Great success even after a short time as my Springer who is 11 was having problems with her arthritis and her weight not helping, she's now leaping about and feeling the benefits of being lighter. My working cocker also benefited as always gets tubby over winter but is now so lean and full of even more energy. Will be keeping them on this from now on as they also love it and even smells delicious to me!

Weight loss
My overweight lab has been on this for over a year now and shes nearly hit her target weight, it really helped her would recommend with dogs that need to lose weight, its a lot cheaper to get of here as my vet charged me 75 for a 12kg bag
23/03/16|Paul Donaghey
Perfect
My Rescue Staffy cross had weight issues,some my fault others matabolic rate. He has lost 5kilo in 3 months by being in this food. He no longer has the weight issues he is less messy on his walks and he eats all of it. Highly recommend if your vet advises this product. It is also much cheaper by buying from Zooplus than direct from your Vet

Perfect
I have 5 beagles and this has not only allowed them all to steadily and safely lose weight down to their ideal weights but also it has done so without them scavanging for food or even appearing hungry. It must be palatable as, even the fussiest dog we have loves it. It has also stabilised our diabetic dog on significantly less insulin as it slow releases sugars into the blood stream. I won't change my 5 off this now. Their weight is stable, they are happy and absolutely nothing goes to waste.
