How much are you feeding him? I ask because the bags are often WAY over-estimated and to get weight loss, you simply should just feed less. When Jackson (16lbs -- 7.25 kilos) was eating TOTW (which is 338 kcal/cup) he was eating 1/2 cup per day (along with a tablespoon of wet food, and some treats). The bag recommended he be eating 1 cup - 1 3/4 cup per day and that was just too much!
I would simply decrease the food and increase the exercise. With that said, no, I don't think RC is "junk". I think it's a decent brand and if your dog is doing well on it, that is what is important. I am not a fan of some of the ingredients but if it works for Fido, then that the best food for him. |
