This food stimulates dog's natural ability to burn fat and keep them playful & active. Its unique blend of fiber helps keep dogs feeling full and reduces food hunger between meals. In fact, 96% of dogs lost weight at home in 2 months when fed the nutrition of Metabolic. This dry food is made with chicken flavor and has an irresistible taste that your dog will love.

Review: Expensive but helped my boy shed 10 pounds - Prior to beginning his "diet", I fed him non -preccription weight management dog food with tiny bit of mix ins so he didn't get bored of same ol food day in/day out. When the vet said, ZERO mix ins or treats I expected my boy would go on a hunger strike in protest. To my surprise he ate entire bowl of the chicken flavored kibble as is, without mix ins. The size (1/2 inch) and triangular shape of the kibble is probably best suited for medium to large breeds. Also according to the feeding instructions I was able to give him more than what he was eating before the diet. My dog met his target weight at the follow up appt and everyone is happy. Bonus: I save few bucks with subscription and I don't have to worry about lugging 27lb bag of food home. The largest size lasts us 5-6 weeks (70lb pit mix). It arrives like clockwork on my doorstep packaged inside a box. Personally I think the box is wasteful however the box AND the plastic dog food bag is recyclable. My local 'Pet Supplies Plus' store collects pet food/treat bags for recycling. I would recommend this dog food to anyone. I deducted a star due to the RIDICULOUSLY high price.
Review: Good purchase. My dog loves the tase. - So far so good, it will take a while to see if my little dog will lose some weight.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is science-led nutrition?**
A: Nutrition inspired by science — not trends — creates differences you can see, feel and trust. Our food scientists understand the combinations of nutrients and ingredients to help support lifelong health.

**Q: How much should I feed my pet?**
A: Most Prescription Diet foods have a feeding guide on the package to help you determine the proper amount for your pet. It's critical to your pet's health that their physical condition be monitored regularly and the feeding amount adjusted as needed.

**Q: How can I tell if an unopened can or bag of cat or dog food is still good?**
A: The datecode on our plastic bags is located on the left gusset, near the 4 or 5-digit SKU number, toward the bottom of the bag. The datecode on our medium and large bags will be located on the top of the bag, generally the front flap.

**Q: How should I store my cat or dog’s dry food?**
A: Bags of dry Science Diet, Healthy Advantage and Prescription Diet cat or dog food should be stored in a cool, dry environment under 100°F (38°C).

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Mix feelings
*by B***O on January 14, 2026*

My dog accepted the new food just fine. He didn't lost a lot of weight but is not gaining either, he's been on this diet for more than 4 months and is a very active dog, walking 2 miles every single day. So I got mix feelings.
