A 'natural' or holistic pet food might help, since those are made of whole food ingredients...Also, it will be more flavorfull, so he might eat a little more. Petco or Petsmart carry a bunch now, like Wellness, Halo and Solid Gold, just to name a few. There are also some high quality foods JUST available at pet shops..

It is better to err on the side of thinner, but since your vet said...Just make sure not to go overboard!
I have defiantly thought about switching his food and I would be ok with it, I just didn't know what was a "good" food. I like the idea of it being more flavorful, he would defiantly eat more if it had more flavor. I have actually thought about Wellness. Would you say that is a good one? and your right, I don't want him to be over weight and have health issues so I think I need something to gradually get him to a healthy weight and keep him their.

Thank You! I appreciate your help!
