This is a great product
This is a great product to try before going to a prescription weight loss diet. If you are comparing science diet pricing to the dog food at the grocery store then yes it's expensive, but a quality dog food should not be bought at a grocery store. I had tried so many things to get my 65lbs 5 year old Aussie to lose weight and did not want to go to the prescription diets yet due to cost. Generally all dog food bags tell you to over feed. I fed mine slightly less than what the bag recommended. And got him down to 55lbs. He runs and acts like a puppy. He's happy healthy energetic not the dog he was when he didn't want to get off the couch. I have worked in the industry almost 10 years and I highly recommend this product.
