Any Q

Feed your dog at least two meals per day; more frequent meals may burn even more calories. Recheck weight after two weeks on the diet. Ideally your dog will be losing between 0.5 to 2 percent of his starting body weight per week, or about 2 to 8 percent per month.

What is the fastest way for a dog to lose weight?

One simple solution to jump-start your dog's weight loss is to feed your dog his normal food in the morning but replacing his second meal with mostly green beans (low sodium), a bit of kibble, and a doggie multi-vitamin in the evening. Switching your dog's treats to healthier options will help him lose weight, too.

Can I feed my dog less to lose weight?

While weight loss can sometimes be achieved by feeding less of your dog's regular maintenance food, you'll find you must feed very small amounts to achieve the reduced number of calories required to lose weight. This leads to a pet that may feel less satisfied and begs more.
