My picky babes love this food! My little guy, well my little big guy has already lost a pound eating this brand of food we have the chicken flavor and now the lamb and rice. I will say that the cable is much smaller than the chicken flavor in this brand of dog food for a weight loss. So if your dog likes smaller kibble the lamb flavor is the way to go. If they can eat a small gum ball size then chicken is also wonderful! Five stars on this food!

I have been feeding Hills for years to my dogs & cats. When I took in a overweight Cocker with food allergies I knew what food was my choice. Not only has she loved the food, which for her in trouble anyway, she feels fuller and has great stools & coat. She seems to feel fuller, not so much begging, she has lost weight and has more energy. Hills is backed by science & research and I trust Hills to give my pets what they need. I have a 17 yr old dog that has eaten Hills his entire life and still has the energy he had when he was 4.

Our dog has visibly lost weight and trimmed up in the 2 months that she has been on this food. She also walks 3/4 of a mile to 1.5 miles most days as well. She had her walks before, but it seems the combo of this diet and the exercise is working. I do wish that this food satisfied her a bit more. That is the only reason for the 4 stars. She just whines and begs for more food and has started trying to get into other's bowls which she didn't do before. It may just be that the others have something different, but she just still seems like she is starving after eating. I assumed as much at first while transitioning her down to the required calorie amount from what she had been eating, but I thought that she would gradually get accustomed to that amount and she just ... MoreOur dog has visibly lost weight and trimmed up in the 2 months that she has been on this food.

I am sure the product is good, but the kibble is so large compared to the Hill's Light, which my cat is used to eating. It is also hard. I am still mixing it in with the Hill's Light, but my cat will eat around this kibble and then finally take a few pieces it out of the bowl to eat (or kick around), or sometimes drop it in the water bowl to soften it before eating! Maybe that is why it helps with weight (?) it takes so long to eat it. After a month, I am still mixing it with the Hill's Light. I'm not giving up. I will try to get him to eat this kibble alone (Metabolic) and see what happens. Will post update.
We have two large older dogs on this dog food. The twelve year old dog went from 122 down to 113 in two months. But our ten year old dog has not lost one single pound. She is still at 125 pounds and she was getting 4 cups a day and now 3.5 cups split into two meals. She is hungry and begging for more. Her name is Meatball. We feel so sorry for her but she HAS to lose weight somehow. This dog food is way to expensive not to work. But Crystal who is two years older and less active and gets more food has done great. She will be at her 90 pound goal in about 3 -4 more months.
My dog has been fed the Metabolic diet before and after the formula was changed, as was the taste. Fortunately, my dog likes both versions. He's been fed this diet, at 2/3 the amount of recommended volume per day, and had an initial weight loss of 3 lbs in 2 months, but then his loss stopped, even though he's exercise and volume of food has not been increased. He's been on this diet for 3.5 months has only lost 4 lbs. He is supposed to lose 14 lb, so this diet may not be the effective one for my dog. I will reduce the amount of the Metabolic dog food, again, that my dog is being fed. If he does not lose any more weight within a month, I will stop feeding this expensive food to my dog.
I reviewed this food six months ago and just wanted to give some additional feedback. Our Staffordshire Terrier is still being fed the Prescription Diet Metabolic Lamb and Rice Formula. Prior to this, he had been on the Metabolic Chicken Formula dry food, but we switched him due to some sensitivities to the chicken that were skin related. The chicken came in a larger kibble, and offered a more satisfying crunch. The lamb formula is a much smaller kibble, and he often times doesn't chew his food well. I have spoken to the Hills Science Diet folks and it doesn't sound like a larger lamb based kibble is in the cards for now. We do allow him some fresh string beans as a treat, but nothing else. He is fed twice a day and continues to maintain his recommended weight. ... MoreI reviewed this food six months ago and just wanted to give some additional feedback.

I have spoken to the Hills Science Diet folks and it doesn't sound like a larger lamb based kibble is in the cards for now. We do allow him some fresh string beans as a treat, but nothing else. He is fed twice a day and continues to maintain his recommended weight. There were several points that I wanted to bring up, in hopes of helping other dog owners. The food seemed very expensive to us in the beginning. Had we followed the feeding guidelines on the bag, it would have been not only astronomical, but he would have been overfed. If you are looking to help your dog lose weight, it is important to know what his recommended caloric intake is per day, based on your vet's assessment. Once you have that number, you can do the math and figure out what it is appropriate for your animal. The other point I would like to bring up is that our dog seemed to be hungry even after his meal, and would basically pick up his bowl and toss it as in a tantrum. We ended up playing around with the amounts we were feeding him, and found that, if we increased his morning feeding, he was not seeming as hungry at dinner. This is working. He gets 1 1/2 cups of food in the morning, and 1 1/8 cups of food at dinner. Based on these amounts, he is getting his appropriate amount of calories, and, although he his system works like clockwork and he knows exactly when it is 5 PM and time for dinner, he is satisfied. It took us several months to cost out the price of his old food versus the Science Diet food. We determined that, once the third bag of Science Diet food had been purchased, we had started seeing a savings. This food has been a blessing, and although it took some time, the benefits have been great. We have just started our younger dog, a pit bull terrier, on the Metabolic Chicken Weight Management/Mobility food, as she has had two CCL replacement surgeries in the past year. Will update on that later.
She was our first Beagle mix rescue (about 2 y.o.). She ballooned from 37# post-heartworm treatment and adoption to 50# in less than a year before we caught on to the fact that Beagles REALLY like to eat. (No - they really are not always starving to death, regardless of what kind of act they put on !) We spent probably 2 years trying to get her weight back down but couldn't seem to keep her satisfied. Our vet then said that he would prescribe Metabolic for her. In the space of maybe a year, she dropped back down to 42# and levelled out. Better yet, she was no longer begging for food constantly. She ate, and was satisfied. Great results. We kept her on it for the next 8 years til she passed. In extreme cases where nothing else has worked, I will recommend this product.
I have used this product for years! I have a beagle and she puts on weight just looking at the packaging! It fills her up for longer, it is easy for her to eat and sometimes I treat her with the wet metabolic canned dog food to break up the boredom. Honestly, if you have a dog like mine who breathes and puts on 2 kgs then this product will definitely help. She has heaps of energy and her coat is always shiny. Well worth the monday, PetPost is one of the most affordable on the market too. I have used other high profile pet suppliers, but they failed the customer service rating in my view, losing my 12.5kg dog food, another company threw my order over the fence and split the 12.5kg of dog food! Not happy with them for that so I came to PetPost, they followed up on my ... MoreI have used this product for years! I have a beagle and she puts on weight just looking at the packaging!

my dog was putting on too much weight after an operation on her patella where she had to have very limited exercise, my vet recommended putting her on hills metabolic. I did so and am very glad to say she has lost 2,5 kg in 4 months, the only trouble is that she does not really like the taste of the biscuits so i have to mix a small amount of chicken or tuna to hide the taste and that works. Very happy with her progress at losing weight and do recommend metabolic.
