Our dog used to be such a picky eater. She was quite overweight, despite regular exercise (we walk her at least once a day, often twice, and tug games) and hardly eating anything. She used to get a scant cup of dry food and a couple of teaspoons of canned food mixed in, and one hard-boiled egg a day, and still didn't lose weight. Then she was diagnosed with diabetes, switched to W/D food. She gets not less than six cups a day and a whole can, as well as two boiled eggs, and she's lost close to 30 pounds (108 down to 79)! The vet said the food is like eating sawdust, but she just loves her new food, so we're truly grateful. It's hard to keep weight on her now, and you don't dare miss a meal or she lets you know it.
