🥣 Weight Management & Feeding Tips:
• Base Portions on Target Weight: When initiating a weight reduction plan, calculate portions based on your dog's ideal target weight, not their current overweight body weight.
• Eliminate High-Fat Treats: Restrict table scraps, cheeses, and fatty treats; if rewarding, use small steamed pumpkin slices or subtract kibbles from their measured daily ration.
• Daily Exercise: Combine measured feeding with consistent daily walks to accelerate fat burn and maintain joint mobility.
• 1 standard measuring cup (250ml) holds approximately 120g. This formula is crafted specifically for adult and senior maintenance and is not recommended for growing puppies or gestating/lactating females.
• Transition gradually over 5 to 7 days (Days 1-2: 25% → Days 3-4: 50% → Days 5-6: 75% → Day 7+: 100%) to allow gentle digestive adaptation to the high-fiber weight management kibble.
🙋 FAQ
Q1: What is the biological function of L-Carnitine in canine weight loss?
A: L-Carnitine is an essential amino acid derivative that acts as a transporter, shuttling free fatty acids across cellular membranes directly into the mitochondria where they are metabolized into usable energy. Formulating with 250 mg/kg active L-carnitine accelerates fat oxidation while preventing lean muscle loss during caloric reduction.
Q2: Why does this formula contain 9% crude fiber, and will it cause digestive upset?
A: The 9% dietary fiber comes from wholesome plant sources including chickpeas, lentils, alfalfa, and Miscanthus grass. High fiber adds physical bulk and slows gastric transit, keeping dogs feeling full and satisfied on fewer calories to curb begging, while DIGESTIBOOST live probiotics ensure smooth gastrointestinal transit.
Q3: Should I keep feeding this diet after my dog reaches their target weight?
A: Yes. Once your dog achieves their ideal body condition score, simply increase their daily portion from the "Weight Loss" column to the "Weight Maintenance" column to stabilize their caloric intake and prevent weight rebound.
