Directions for Use
- Less Active Adult Dogs: This formula is clinically formulated for adult dogs between 1 and 6 years that require fewer calories due to a less active lifestyle, neutered status, or an otherwise increased tendency toward weight gain.
- 7-Day Transition: A phased dietary transition over 7 days minimizes gastrointestinal disruption when introducing this formula to your dog.
- Adjust Portions: Daily feeding amounts must be regularly reassessed and adjusted to maintain the dog's optimal body weight throughout the weight management program.
- Two Feeding Modes: This formula provides separate portion guidance for weight loss and weight management. Use the weight loss column to actively reduce body weight and the weight management column to maintain the dog's target weight once it has been achieved.
- Fresh Water: Fresh water should always be within reach to support healthy hydration and organ function in adult dogs throughout the day.
- Dry Food Pairing: This formula pairs well with a compatible Hill's Science Diet Light dry food, giving pet owners the flexibility to mix formats within the same trusted range.
- Vet Checkups: Regular vet visits help keep the dog's weight progress on track and allow daily portions to be adjusted as the program moves forward.

Q3: Does this formula support heart function and mobility alongside weight control?
Ans: Yes, this formula is clinically described as a low-calorie food designed to help promote ideal body weight, support healthy mobility, and maintain heart function in adult dogs aged 1 to 6.
Q4: How many cans per day should a 40 lb adult dog receive for weight loss versus weight management?
Ans: For an adult dog with an ideal weight of 40 lbs (18 kg), 2 cans of the 370 g (13 oz) format per day is recommended for active weight loss, stepping up to 2 3/4 cans daily once the target body weight has been reached for maintenance. Actual amounts should be adjusted based on the dog's individual progress, ideally under veterinarian guidance.
Q5: Does natural fiber in this formula help with hunger control between meals?
Ans: Yes, high-quality protein and natural fibers are incorporated to help satisfy hunger between meals in adult dogs on a calorie-reduced feeding program. This reduces the tendency for dogs to seek additional food between scheduled feedings, supporting dietary compliance during weight management.
Q6: Does this formula support skin and coat health while managing weight?
Ans: Yes, Omega-6 fatty acids and Vitamin E are added to support healthy skin and a beautiful coat in adult dogs throughout their weight management program. This ensures that the reduced caloric profile of the formula does not compromise nutritional support for skin and coat health.
Q7: Can this formula be combined with Hill's Science Diet Light dry dog food?
Ans: Yes, this formula can be served alongside a compatible Hill's Science Diet Light dry food. When combining both formats, total daily caloric intake from all portions should be calculated together to maintain accurate weight management control.
Q8: How should I transition my dog to this formula?
Ans: A gradual 7-day transition is recommended when introducing this food. Steadily increase the new food while reducing the old one, giving the digestive system enough time to adapt and reducing the risk of gastrointestinal disruption as the dog settles into the new formula.
