- What Diet to feed your dog to lose weight?
So your vet just told you your dog is fat and needs to lose weight?
Personally, I like to say big boned but anyways haha lets go over some diets and daily things you can do at home to help your dog lose weight.
Weight loss is the same for pets as it is for us humans:
1) Cut back on calories
2) Exercise more
3) Less snacks
4) Drink More water
But the easiest way I like to help pets lose weight is Prescription weight loss diets:
My ultimate favorite diet to use for weight loss is Hills WD - this is a low calorie, low sugar diet for diabetic pateints and it seriously takes the weight off. Feed them the recommended dose on the bag. It comes in wet food too! Which I love topping my dogs food off with to help entice them to eat it and they love it!
Now other diets for weight loss that work too for dogs are:
Hills ID low fat
Royal Canin GI low fat
Royal Canin metabolic
And Royal canin satiety
All of these diets are prescription diets and you need to go to your vet to get a script for them.
All of these diets are focused on lower fat and calorie conent but you can still feed your dog a good amout twice a day and they will lose weight.
Now the no brainer: Cut out those table scraps and left overs.
Seriously, NO people food if you want your pet to lose weight.
Pizza crust makes dogs gain weight so fast!
You can give your dogs fruits and veggies!
Ok guys remember a thin dog will live longer than a fat dog! So try your best to keep your dogs in shape.

I wish you would show us things we can do at home without a vet. Its very expensive to go to a vet to ask for a script diet bc they will want to run tons of test before they prescribe the new diet
They will not do whats not conducive to a doctor. Most I’ve been to indoctrinated to believe everything revolves around medical advice when we’re all capable of reading and understanding, go back to nature, do a lot of research and make at home foods.
Meats:
Any kind of organ, meat, lean, turkey breast, lean, skinless chicken breast, 90 to 95% low-fat beef
Veggies/ green:
Carrots, apples, peas, Beets,
Green beans, leafy greens, pumpkin, and sweet potato, or a good source of fiber, broccoli, cucumbers, brussels sprouts
You can cook lentils in water or chicken or bone broth. Just extremely low sodium.
You can sauté with coconut oil and turmeric, olive oil is good to, but in moderation with any of these
I moved out of my mom's house a while ago. When I left, my dog was a healthy weight (he was a baby lab, I kept track of his food, took him on walks, played, etc.)
My mom is extremely stubborn and when I try to tell her slight bumps from the ribs are healthy, she complained he wasn't eating enough. But I know he was healthy.
Now it's been 3 years, and my lab who is now 5, is either 100lb or heavier. He's obese. Disgustingly obese (I love him, but it's disgusting because I know he's not healthy).
My grandmother and her sister "take care" of my Krypto, and now he looks like a meatball, a loaf of bread. He's 5 and he looks 14.
So now I'm telling my mother to give me the responsibility of my boy again, to let me put him on a diet but we don't have the money to help him with prescription diets.
I need a diet for him that will wean him off eating such large portions, while also helping him lose weight (in a healthy way) without risking any major problems for him because I know he has a motherload of problems right now.

You must WATCH OUT THE COMMERCIAL BROTHS HAVE ONIONS AND OTHER SPECIES AND HERBS THAT ARE POISONS! ONIONS ARE 100 %POISON FOR DOGS THEY DIE IF INGESTING ONIONS!
MAKE THE BONE BROTH YOURSELF. NO SPICES OR HERBS
Thank you for this !! You should have a channel with this good advice !
I would never ever give my dog either of those dog foods.. Look at the ingredients! Full of synthetics, man made garbage, corn and or wheat by products and very very VERY little meat! Im shocked that a VET would say to give this to a dog.. Everyone knows that a dog in the wild eats meat.. Not synthetics, not man made garbage, not corn or wheat by products.. MEAT... That and honest and true vegetables.. If your dog is fat its because hes not getting enough exercise and not getting the proper diet.. No way I would give this crap to my dog.. Especially those low cost brands found at Walmart, Target or PetSmart.. Even Hills Brand has very very little meat in it.. Good lord thats like us eating McDonalds every single day..
what kind of meat do you feed your dogs. I've been doing a little cooked chicken and green beans. They moan and beg within an hour wanting more to eat because they are not getting a full feeling. I'm at my wit's end
@@acts10truth I give my dog Primal freeze dried or I will make ground turkey and vegetables for her.. She loves it and used to be the most pickiest eater ever! Hope this helps!!
@@meichelle2000 ty so much for your response!
If your dog's diet is so healthy and she's not fat then why did you search this video and watched it? I really doubt UA-cam recommended it to you from out of nowhere 🤔
@@diahreea2022 Not that it is any of your business, but yes it did show up on my recommended youtube... I am always researching and making sure that I am feeding her correctly and doing everything I can for her - So why would I NOT watch a video like this?? Maybe.. Just mayybeee I might learn something from a video such as this.. Up until I seen what they were actually saying ought to be fed to a dog.. I wouldnt give that to a stray let alone my very own..
Thank you Dr
Thank you so much.
God damn that boi chunky 220lbs is crazy
Tried the OM did not work for my black lab. She’s gained massive amounts of weight since being spayed. Nothing including exercise seems to work
Hey! I am just seeing this now. You can try another diet with even less calories and fat called HILLS W/D this is a high fiber low sugar diet for diabetics and really works too.
I wonder how much this vet was paid or incentives given to recommend these
How do you feel about obese dogs and metformin type medications to lose weight? Nothing I have done works. She has anxiety/aggression with food issues. Thanks.
Though my dog is fat, I feed her only real food. Portions are my challenge.
Dr, would you mind advising why a weight restriction diet needs to accompany a prescription? This is bewildering to me?
Hey! they are veterinary formulated therefore costs extra money to make these diets and so they cost more and therefore need a script from a vet. Also, if used incorrectly a dog can loose too much weight. So its best for the pet if a vet is following the patient using these diets.
I heard royal canin has sugar in it. So i dont feed that stuff to my cats anymore. My dog on the other hand is wreck and it doesnt rly matter anymore and she rly likes hills and royal canin. I rly hope she loses some weight over the summer with swimming so she can live easyier with her arthritis.
wym it doesn’t matter anymore?
It always matters… Dogs love us unconditionally despite eating dry kibble and being stuck in a house all day. The least you could do is appreciate your dog as if it matters. If not, why get a dog in the first place?
@@koady8588 she has a lot of health problems because shes a inbreed puppy. If she enjoys Royal canin so be it. She can die from other things everyday, so food is our last concern. Sad for the dogs who are stuck inside a house , mine definitily isn't.
@@koady8588 Ps. : i got a dog so i can pay 200-700$ for the vet EVERY month.
@@maileensoundso1547 Vet bills are usually lower when you consider health an important matter. Like what they eat... "My dog on the other hand is wreck and it doesnt rly matter anymore" what a sad mindset. I hope one day you learn to view animal health as something that matters despite the circumstances. Imagine if someone thought that way of you? You matter just like your dog does.
I used that food and my chocolate lab lost so much weight
Are there any other brands you recommend? I normally feed my girls Victor brand.
The best thing to feed a dog is when it’s RAW!!!
I was using valu pac because its 50 lbs for 30 dollars but recently went to victor at same cost. How does your dog seem to do on grain free victor
@@acts10truth I actually do the Victor with the grains. Lucy is on the healthy weight and Zoe is on the Beef Meal(pork meal?). I threw away the bag lol so Im not sure which but they both do great. Great bowel habits and never seem finicky with Victor. Also, I have tried Muenster Milling. Thats a great brand too!
@@latosa18 one more question please, how old are your babies and how long on victor? ty for indulging me
@@acts10truth Lucy is a rescue and just turned approx. 3 yrs old. She got chunky after being spayed and before the Victor. Zoe is a 19 month pure bred extreme energy Border Collie. She sometimes gets a little extra because she stays very thin
What about giant breeds?
Hello , I have a 1yr 6mo old golden retriever and she's 37 kgs even tho she's not very tall , she's not obese but she is overweight and has a lot of fat , her diet is has very low calories and I give her excersise throughout the day , I make her run behind my cycle for 30 mins a day , I play fetch with her for 30-40 mins a day , I walk her for 3 km 2wice a day and at night I walk her on the treadmill on trot speed for 40mins and she does not seem to reduce much weight , show reduced a little a few months ago and I've been very consistent with the routine and she's still just as fat as before , please help me as I've looked for solutions everywhere and my vet also doesn't know Any solution , also she overheats very quickly and has very low stamina despite all the excersise so please help me she's everything to me
Please get vet to run a thyroid panel test.
Doctor is it ok to give everyday my doberman calcium ,omega 3,probiotic thanks a lot
Yes it's fine
But if the dog shows any effects even if minute ones...contact your vet and give them accordingly to vet
@@gomugomuno69 thanks
@@lipsferfernandez6886 your welsome... i thought my comment wont reach you 😂
Maam make more vlog so that we could learned to you thanks a lot maam about the nexgard every month should we give our dog .and is it ok to give nexgard every month maam how about the liver and kidney if we give our dog nexgard month
Also, check their thyroid! Before you starve your dog. This should be addressed.
Your the one I tapped on! My mini daucshound is fat now. My dad thinks its a cat and gives her half n half and butter. No matter what I tell that fool. Help 🆘
Butter? Butter is horrible, it clogs Arteries, and it can cause Pancreatitis, tell you’re dad to stop feeding you’re dog butter or you guys are going to have a lot of health problems with you’re dog in the future
Mine too. I know he doesn't get enough exercise. Is there something we can feed them that doesn't require a prescription?
@@chicbarrelracer4552 thank you!!!
@@mariaclayton9892 don't know.. But we are outside more. She still fast and happy!
I know. We are going to get outside more and have some intentional playtime. @@hokuponopono4415
I can't believe I spent $90 on Purina. It is full of Filler my dog has been on it for at least a month and has not lost weight.
She's 75 pounds needs to lose 20 she's only eating 500 to 600 K cals A-day.
Try the Hills WD it really works!
@@drlindsaybutzer my dogs don't like any dry and I can feed 3 big dogs on cans, so why would my dogs like the hillsWd?
Purina is one of the very Worst, in my opinion, dog foods out there. I won't buy anything from them.
Thats the cheapest brand of doog food 😮
Hi im so worry my dog is so skinnyn it just happen in one week. im embares to bring him to the vet and that he think i been neglect him. he only 2years old i been giving him alot of steaks and his deewormed . he only gain one pound in one week
Check his poop for parasites that may be taking his nutrition! Hook worms or round worms .. or something else
Oho! not only steaks you must rotate the food, they need carrots, pumpking , squash, cucumbers, beens, steamed broccoli, steamed colliflower, berries, fish
Be careful too much protein can give him kidney disease. Must also give him sweet potatoes, bison, deer. And also raw bones, you give some chicken and turkey but lean.be careful with kidney stones
You’re sponsoring brands to help yourself.
Hello
Worst dog foods!!
Why?
My Puggle is fat as shit. Is there a version of Sweatin’ To The Oldies for dogs?
hahah no. just pick a low calorie diet. Like the ones I mentioned .
you are as cute as the dog
S I M P
@@lilbeanz19 being nice is simping now these days? And us guys still make memes about males not getting compliments lmfao
OMG I would never feed my dog either one of these. Hill's is crap dog food!! If you care about your dog then make it yourself. Any high heat cooked kibble is bad for dogs and will definitely shorten his life. Now we know who is paying you a bonus.
A vet recommending pure junk food for dog weight loss? How much did u even get paid to advertise them in here. I thought this video was how to prepare healthy home cook meals for dogs.
Those overprocessed and manufactured junk pellets are no good for any animal
Then why is your dog fat? If you searched and watched this video, that means you're trying to make your dog lose weight, cause it's very unlikely UA-cam would recommend this video to you from out of nowhere 🤔
Right
Mam I wnt taketo you
